Funny I had Milan do the exactly the same thing when they were besieging Marseilles.
I playing the Spanish on H/H was assaulted by Milanese forces, I sent a unit of Jinetes on a suicide mission to take out their cannon. My Cannon Towers had taken out their Trebuchet. That left me to deal with 2 siege towers. My Cannon Towers destroyed one of them but the blasted Milanese managed to get one tower to the walls.
Luckily for me they all bunched in front of it. I sneakily manouvered one of my Basilisks out of the gate and shot the offending siege tower and destroyed it. After that all hell broke lose.
The banners on the milanese forces became twitchy and started displacing form one spot to another. The Milanese army units just stood their like they were still trying to go up the siege tower. This gave my towers and crossbowmen ample time to cut down their forces. When I opened the gates and charged them with a unit of mercenary knights they snapped out of their inactivity but it was too late for them then
When the enemies bunch together like that I suffer a slight drop in framerate...but still easily playable. And I run it on almost max settings
