But how do you put them outside of the wall in deploment! It wont ever allow me to do such a thing, I have to send them out the gate which they'll be in full sight as would any other troop...

Mainly because I've wanted to do a thing like in the movie Troy, the huge battle where 50,000 greeks stormed Troy, but the Trojans had archers on the walls, and 10-20,000 soliders in the front, so the archers couldnt be attacked, nor the gates battered, so while they hold off & fight the enemy army, the archerse continue to fire without harm! I've wanted to do this tactic badley, but cannot since I cant put my men outside the walls before they enemies march in... since you stated above that you can put the outside of the walls before the battle... how so?
