Siege AI any good?

[CynicalP]

The only time I lost a siege defense was against the timurids. Once they made their appearance they headed straight for Antioch and attack the town with 3 stacks. If if weren't for the elephants I probably could have pulled off a victory. It was the funnest siege defense I experienced even though I lost.

The AI is really dumb when you sally forth against an enemy seige. The enemy army just seems to stand facing the gates making it very easy to out flank them and crush them.


The AI seige defense is absolutely horrendous too. It's a shame it doesnt seem there are any AI scripts that would allow the clever modder to improve the defense. I am playing LTC 3.1 and I havent seen any improvement in the AI siege defense.

If there is one area I wish CA would patch is improving the battle AI.
