MTW - Early Castle (Fort) Assaults

[HopAlongBunny]

Fort battles I pretty much do all the same (if w/o artillery)

Attack from all sides; stagger it so each breaks through a lil later than the first.
You either dogpile the defenders or get them running between breaches; I always try to get one unit engaged in front and one in flank/rear.

I will tone this down for a single defender; no point having 8+ units get shot up by defences to dispatch one peasant.

Yes, you need to bribe all stacks of units to get it "free" and clear
The AI has a habit of "just happening" to build one unit in the fort on the turn you bribe.
