AI splits units defending a "castle" assault (VI)

[DEB8]

A little detail further to my original post :

On the first occasion the split unit was the General's unit ( 65 Fyrdmen to 33 and 32 ). The 33 ( I believe ) remained the General's unit.

On the second occasion the split units appearred both inside the "castle" and outside the "castle" ( in a nearby wood ) ; with 1 half unit inside and 3 half units outside !

[ NB : on both occasions the assault occured after a siege round. ]


I hope the latter tactic ( "Castle" / Woods split ) is not limited to the AI... Can anyone advise re this. Thanks.

[ NBB : Having just viewed several custom battles re Viking "castles", I believe this is limited to the AI (only ) !! ]
