(Mod request) make siege engines less useless

[harisjaan]

Title. as of now when u get to mid game-and late game the siege engines kinda suck u do better if u allow ur troops to just use the ladder and lose less troops. that makes those time consuming towers and other stuff u build before siege very useless. or at least someone should make something that allows units to climb the towers easily instead being stuck. or Speed up the towers to the walls they move painfully slow. I have tried troop Collision mod that only helps with regular ladders not the siege towers.

 

if Anyone can be the Hero this is really needed. ty

I believe the troop collision mod said it did fix siege towers. But that may have an older version because I think siege tower collision was fixed in 1.2 update. As for artillery, on the campaign map as soon as it is built, pause the game, click on the artillery and move it to reserve. Once you have all 4 built, deploy them all and it is much more effective. Either side loses troops each time an artillery piece is destroyed. For in battle artillery, the fire onagers can get some pretty decent kills. It all depends on the firing angle. Artillery doesn't seem as good because historically they were more for bombardment before battles, destroying enemy walls and siege engines, etc. I do agree it could be more effective though. For example regular catapults should kill more than 1 troop if it lands in a group.
