    Default Seiges!

    What the hell is wrong with sieges in this game! It is stupid, one time I had a full stack in a citadel and the AI attack with 1/4 stack only peasant archers and one ram... and they win! How is this possible, why the hell did I lose!?
    A ha ha! Rainbows and unicorns! Rainbows and unicorns!

    I seem to have the complete opposite effect you have. With a few longbowmen I can cause the Mongolian hordes to come to a screeching halt. When their first ram lights afire, they mindless march back and forth getting slaughtered by my ranged attacks.


    Even when they do break down the gates, they all funnel into the gateway with horse archers, and right into my stakes that decimate them.


    Supposedly, the Seige AI and it's response to stakes will be fixed in the patch. Can't wait to see what will happen then.

    sounds like an autoresolve result to me

    when you auto resolve battles the castles defenses are not taken into account as far as i know.

    Yea...you really need to give more details

    agree w/ above, it sounds like he auto-guessed. might as well be playing civilization if that's the case.
