Well first of all i'd like to thank the creators of this great mod for all their work.Secondly i have some ideas i posted on an other thread but didn't get any answers from the EB team:
1)I had an idea. Why not include a city militia to the town garrison. I'll explain: often other than soldiers, the common populace would fight when in dire circumstances, just look at cartage at the end of the third punic war. so if we could add a small recruitment building when under seigethat can obviously only recruit levies, that would represent well the devotion of the populace to their current owner. and if thy aren't happy they could revolt and give the city to the attackers, but only if they are the same culture.
I have yet to understand what in real life would have stopped you from recruiting when under seige. it's not like the enemy say: "hey it's not fair, we suffer from not having much food and therefore yall must suffer by depleating your numbers every turn and not recruiting, it's called good sportsmanship!" i find the entire seige sistem devised in RTW to be completely unrealistic, if a city is big, has big supplys and doesen't have to maintain a large number of soldiers, the first casualties from famine should come after at least a year.
