Defense or Attack STATS?

[CBR]

Hm thats interesting as I was told otherwise during 1.2 betatest. But I never really tested it.

2hp units are better when assaulting stone walls when not number of soliders, but quality of individuals counts more.

In other cases, having twice more troop is better.
Even in MP you could see that players prefer their generals to be regular cavalry instead of bodyguards.

That makes sense. But then which is better for holding the walls: high att/low def or low att/high def. Similarly, which is better for taking the walls?

I would imagine that a high def would be more important in taking the walls, simply because they need the oppoprtunity to stay alive to try to attack. They cant attack if their dead... Hmmmm, in that case, maybe high def is better in all circumstances, unless you are flanking/surrounding.
