so there are differences between cases in the same campaign. The question is, is this just random, or are there reasons behind it in the battle???
I have 2.01 and I have spotted the same regularity Axalon speaks about. I can't wager that it ALWAYS goes this way, but by storming a castle you have more probability it will stay intact than by starving it out. I remember once I stormed a fort and its walls were breached so much that it was a miracle it was still standing. Yet it didn't take any damage, as the campaign map showed.
