The defense tower is too unbalanced
The defense tower is too unbalanced.When I attacked the city, my soldiers couldn't get in. Hope the developers can handle it.

Towers are pretty strong tbh, could do with some tweaking

Yeah, higher level city defense towers are even more disgusting. Large Numbers, long range and high damage. Even if we can rush into the gate, we can't reach the central square.

Its about bringing the right tools for the right job. Towers are by far a lot weaker then any other Total War game to date. One Catapult or a Squad of Archers with the fire arrow ability is more then enough to pick apart these defences. Failing all that, atleast almost every settlement as a blind spot from which its possible to over run that tower without being caught in overlapping fields of fire.

No, no, no, my soldiers are of the highest rank. They die after a few shots from the tower. I'm also a veteran of total war, and I really think the defense towers of this generation are particularly strong.

They're strong to counter generals charging in and to encourage using skills/classes who'd otherwise have little to no function on the battlefield. Rock-paper-scissors. A strategist in your army doing big sieges and they're not such a problem.

You will love them if you defend especially when you are outnumber

Agreed! Attacking a siege is so trivial especially unlocking turtle formation, trebuchet and fire arrows.

You are right, maybe my troops are not enough, I only use a whole army, to attack a high level city, it is very stupid. To tell you the truth, there are so many defense towers in the city.LOL

Sometimes strategy games require thought, yeah.

Agree! I think you can attack any city successfully when you have three units?

I usually choose to fight automatically, but after trying to do it myself, I find it difficult. I just spent time thinking about strategy instead of fighting.

The towers are made of wood. Burn them down.

I think the towers are fine, they’re powerful but there’s plenty of ways to deal with them. Turtle formation is amazing for keeping your troops safe as they advance and any archer unit with fire arrows will take minimal losses in loose formation while trying to burn the towers down, and once they’re burning they also cause a morale debuff for the AI that like to stand next to the towers in the chokepoints.

First, you need lots of archers or catapults. Second, you need to be able to rush into the city. Finally, you need to be in range. Because the most defensive towers in the city.Right?
