[QUOTE="Shane_Leahy, post: 3375782, member: 15909"] Everyone is saying that AOE will kill the attackers so how do you deal with it? Disperse your troops, don't have any large concentrations of them. Since the army inside the castle is so small, you should not have to worry about your army being taken apart piecemeal. Best way not to get AOE'd is to get your troops in with the enemy as quick as possible. No Siege, lots of ladders, and get on those walls fast. Sure, you will lose alot of men but you will lose them no matter what. Also you stated that there is a town around the castle. If you can get to the town before too many citizens are safely in the castle you should have some protection from the wizards. Not a nice way to do it. Deception. Can you make the wizards cast alot of spells on the wrong targets? Then when they are resting hit them? Sneak attack? Use those bodyguards and any rogue types you have to sneak inside the castle and open the doors for a quick charge. Could the General 'invite' a scryassassination and ambush the arriving mages? Eliminate some of them that way? [/QUOTE]
