Hello..

I'm not a big fan of siege towers (I prefer ladders), but I was forced to use one to climb up a Large Stone Wall.

Well... so I deployed two Siege Towers, one on each side of a Gateway.

In one side, there was a enemy army, but in the other side, nothing.

The problem is that in both sides, some of the soldiers (Urban Cohorts) have fallen of the wall as soon as they put their feet out of the tower! In the side which had an enemy army, more than 20 soldiers stupidly jumped off the wall, killing themselves. Well, since there were enemies in this side, I didn't bother because maybe the enemies have pushed them off the wall or something like that.

But in the other side, the same thing happened.. but fewer soldiers (10 or 12 I think) commited suicide. There were no enemies to rush them from getting out of the tower, nothing. They just lost their will to live.

Is that supposed to happen?

I have read that there is a bug which prevents the soldiers from climbing the tower in Large Stone Walls, but haven't found any about guys falling out of it without reason.

Also, I have used Siege Towers before with sucess, but never on large stone walls.
