I still consider you a pretty smart gentlemen Anders. But really? Failing sieges? It's a pretty hard castle to attack. How can you defenders legitamently "brag" about winning the defense of one damn tough castle to take.
Because they added 300 troops in to have AI buy worse gear and they went on and on about how they were going to sell it...
If it wasn't for that I'd say it was a good try. But, anyone who attacks with more than 1000 and doesn't USE 600 that's just bad planning. Your First battle, for example was a massive waste but the second and third siege you used up almost your entire armeis(even if you went negative). I wasn't on the defence, btw was at a training session for work.
Being Douchbags doesn't help get you mercs either. At leaset you guys are douchebags(depending on your side/opinion), but good at the game, so people will do it. They are just douchebags.
