significant ladder assault bug

[Sam Adams]

major bug i just noticed durring a city assault without siege equipment:

1) soldiers were all falling off(to their deaths) an uncontested siege tower ramp as it met the wall.

2) ladders did not appear on the map.

fought the battle twice, once with 7 ladders and once with 2 towers and 3 ladders. The ladders never actually appeared. My army had one good general and 8 urban cohorts. This combo of bugs makes such an assault unplayable.

Ladders only appear on regular stone walls (Level 3 walls). They do not work on anything higher than that, presumably because the walls are too tall for ladders.

ok i can deal with that... towers still dont work though.

Just to add a little bug (I think) but playing last night I built ladders for the first alone with some siege towers. I did not like the initial deployment of troops (my archers pushing a siege tower!??!) to altered thing including removing a unit of peasants from the siege tower and assigning them to ladders..

When I started the game, evry time I selected the peasant unit they still reponded by shouting out "Tower"...

Not to bright those peasants I guess...

I have added this to the bug sticky...

You can drop the siege weapon and tell a unit you want to use it so it will use it. Also, men only fall off of ladders just like when they route (Fight to the death) Never had the not appear bug though.
