Strategus Sieges Suggestion

Give armies attacking in a siege the ability to deploy pre-made catapults or have catapults on the map when the battle starts. Does anyone here really enjoy throwing 40 materials into a box to make a catapult that can get broken by one cavalryman abusing fall distance from a castle wall?

Also why the fuck would an attacking army wait 24 hours to siege a place and not have built fucking anything to prepare in that time?

I like the fact you can build them instead of just selecting one.. It also use multiple players/time which adds another aspect to the game. So the ability to build one shouldn't be removed.

If they did add the ability to pre-make some siege equipment I think there would have to be some restrictions/conditions.
  • Only for sieges
  • Only attacking side
  • Only Catapults and siege towers can be pre-made
  • They spawn right at the back of the map behind spawn (players have to move them during the siege if they want them moved)
  • They should come at a much higher cost (to compensate for the saved time/player requirement)
  • Cap the amount you can have pre-made (2 catapults and 2 siege towers, no matter size)

However, I think this isn't really necessary and there are other more important things the devs should be working on first.
