Yeah! I made my first assault above fort level without losses!

Was it a peasant that was defending?

No, they were mostly slav warriors and javs plus a few bulgarian bingands and a couple RK...

Basically the most important factor is that my cannons pretty much annihilated the castle defences, so that there was little arrow fire against my heavy armoured assault troops.

I believe you've hit upon a new flavor of CHEESE: Cannon, a little strong than Gouda....

I agree, massive cannon barrages are quite cheesy against the AI, which balks instead of charging at full speed against it...

That said, it's quite funny see a castle reduced to rubble in a few minutes
I suspect MTW gunpodwer artillery is quite overpowered compared to their real counterparts...

I don't think so. In real life, you would use maybe a hundred cannons to hit a well defended castle like this. But here, you can only get up to 16. They have to balance it out somehow.
