Defending Cities to Easy?

[Haido]

I think this is a problem which they should fix though. Since sieges is essentially a big part of the game. It shouldn't be all that easy to defend from the attackers. AI needs an upgrade.

What's lovely is when the A.I. bumrushes all there troops in at once. oops did I just chainroute your vast army?

I had 3 hastati and 1 equites. I origonally positioned the hastati at the gate so that anything entering would be surrounded but there archers dictated otherwise so I fell back(something the A.I. almost never does). I'm now halfway between the gate and the town square and most of the arrows are hitting the buildings. So what do they do they bumrush all 2000 of there troops in at once. I was in a part where the path widened and they were coming through a narrow street. well anyways they had almost made a break through the center. I figured all or nothing and rushed my wimpy equties in and boom the enemy army is routing. Now if the gauls had actually led that army with a general(bonus morale) it would have almost guaranteed that they won or at least kept a good reserve as only a few unit can figth at once. If only theyprogrammed the game to have armies led by generals then they'd actually have chance.
