My first post Very strange i can't post in the normal fora...
Take a look at the third page of the preview at mastersgames (see topic new screenshots), the page about sieges, then zoom in on the sitxth picture.
There you see a big wall. On the right side of the pic you see legionaires scaling ladders....but on the left side of the screen look what's at the bottom of the collapsing wall....
To me this looks like some earth mounds with small paliseds surrounding it... i belive this unit of legionaires has succesfully sapped the walls. That would be logical: sapping is tunneling the wall.
The downside is see is that an entire unit has to stand in fornt of the wall to sap and so to be very fulnerable to missiles.
I'd like to know f you agree of if i'm completely wrong.

Welcome to the .org aracis http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif

The so called new screens are actually of an older build of rtw. So i guess you could call them New old screens http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-juggle.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
