the AI is too dumb to guard its artilary with spearmen. just one or two units of equities will take care of nearly all of their siege weapons. and if they're crazy enough to roll those lighter siege weapons along with their army line, just shoot them up with your archers. the 30-40 men running the siege engines crap out after 2 or 3 salvos.
