Hi! I have a problem in my campaign.. I created my clan, tier 4, ready to siege some fiefs.. But I can't fine ONE engineering companion to join me. What can i do? I scroll the list of companions all the way down, useless.. no engineer ... Aslo i have 0 skill, and can't wait to make 200 to siege..

you dont need an engineer to siege. IF nobody can fill a role in your party, the hero character will do it.
Also wandering character are randomly generated, so you can end up without any medic or engineer. in that case, just grab any and spec him into eng or medic, or spec it on the main character.

Some companions who generally have engineering skills -- the Wainwright, the Scholar, the Knowing, the Engineer.

Scholar and Knowing may have medicine instead, but Wainwright and Engineer are pretty reliably engineers.

Of course, the companions with engineering may not have spawned yet, or they may not show up in the encyclopedia because they haven't been sighted anywhere, If you have no designated engineer, then the game uses yours engineering skill.

You can siege without a designated engineer. Which is a good thing, then your character get the experience and since it will always be in a siege when you are sieging... win/win

Use the encyclopedia. Search for 'Wainwright', 'Scholar', 'Engineer' and 'Knowing'. Right now in a pretty new campaign, I have 1 Wainwright, 2 Scholars, and 1 Knowing, but zero Engineers. One of the Scholars is a medic, but that still leaves 3 Engineers to choose from. I'm on a trade run, so I will go pick one up when I get close.
