Blame Canary - he was there every fight and had time to clear out the gear. We have done it, so does most people.
?? That doesn't really make sense since after the first siege army he had an hour to clear out gear - that doesn't explain the 3 field battles.
No. The first siege ended at 7:06, the followup attack started at 7:10.
Including the 4 minutes prep time before both teams spawn, that's under one minute I had to transfer gear out once the fight ended. When I hit the transfer button it gave me the "fief preperation attack" error, though it did, for some reason, pull out almost all the armor and horses anyway but none of the weapons.
Want an explanation for the field battles? Yippee-kay-yay, m'lord. I figure it's more fun if a war isn't fought in one direction constantly, you dig? For the field battles fought today, I got all the gear out after the second siege, coincidence?!
