Is there an increase / decrease tension button to aim better I don't know about? Seems they always instantly get their ram to my door but I can't do that when I'm sieging. It seems to always be aimed at one distance and I can't pinpoint where I want to shoot. On a second note when I am defending I haven't figured out if my catapults, or mangonels, can aim higher or lower. So how do I overcome that? What are some good siege strats to use / do? How can I overcome these blasted castles?
It's almost as if every enemy garrison has a Leonardo Da Vinci living there on staff to make great weapons for them at a moments notice. Even if my engineer is highly skilled it's just instantly BOOM we have catapults and you have none. So when I attempt to siege a place the enemy ALWAYS manages to get catapults up before me so they instantly destroy any siege equipment I make (except for rams and towers in the back).
