I've been trying a few custom battles assaulting different cities, and i've been having a lot of difficulty using factions other than the Romans.
The Roman tactics i've been using to assault cities:
Wooden walls: Using battering rams, break a hole in a gate + wall, then rushing my infantry en masse to attack the centre of the settlement.
Stone walls: Siege towers, capture a section of the wall and continue rushing infantry up to the wall, attempting to capture a gatehouse and then (again) rushing my infantry to the centre with heavy fighting in the streets.
However, these tactics don't work on some factions, and the custom battles i've been fighting gave me crushing defeats again and again (ESPECIALLY against the romans).
Just would like some advice on how to take cities using factions other than the Romans. My battlefield tactics seem to be okay, but assaulting a city, especially a heavily fortified one, is a completely different matter.
