Your footmen should arrive at the same time as the last wave of knights.' - Yogie Bear 'If you're facing like 4-6 snakes, rats, or sultans you build market place, 2 hovels, armory, then barracks. (Dont forget to build granary) then buy maces and leather armor and start krankin out macemen send them over to there castle and waste there king. It helps if you slow the time down' - The Conquerer 'It takes great skill to siege a very strong castle with concentric walls. The first wave of troops you send in are spearmen and some pikemen. This will eliminate any wooden pits and may set off some pitch. Next, set up trebuchets and fire ballista to breach the walls.

Fire off some cattle first to reduce the enemy peasant level, disabling them of making more troops. Once the archers and crossbowmen are locked onto your swordsmen (you'll need like 300), send in a few dozen laddermen and scale the walls. Charge the walls with macemen. Start digging a few tunnels. Finally, send in a few siege towers and send up your swordsmen. The enemy still has a second and possibly third layer of defense.

Use your macemen to kill all the defenders on the first wall. Charge knights and pikemen to combat any foot troops attacking your troops. Ram their next wall, and then set s few siege towers and your remaining laddermen against the wall. Send in your entire swordsmen and macemen force, backed by pikemen. Destroy the last wall, if there is one, with brute force of foot soldiers. Charge the keep with your army and kill the lord. Bringe around 50 crossbowmen in the battle to pick off enemy arhcers and engineers.Be sure to leave at least a few hundred pikemen at home to guard against knight sorties launched by the enemy.

Also, remember to build a mixed force rather than just massing one unit.' - tz-crusader 'If you have lots of gold, build the granary, lots of houses, recruit lots of engineers and build lots of fire balistae.

This things can kill EVERYTHING in the game except the lords. Given time, they can kill the lords too.'
