Wow - I've just tried it 3 times - the closest I came was in the 3rd one (duh!) - I breached the walls of the inner castle around the keep in 2 places, ignoring the curtain wall.

I hit the breaches with spear infantry in front, halberdiers behind them and then cavalry - I wiped out the defenders butthen by bloody general routed when fighting the English foot knights - and winning easily (and with 38 of her knights left!!)!! http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/frown.gif

Needless to say that was the end of that game - perhaps later in hte week I'll get the co-ordination a little better.....
