Two days later they sortie again against the weakened mongols, routing them completely and lifting the siege. So the defenders retreat back into the city to lick their wounds.
It's a bloody battle, and while they almost route the mongols, they can't quite get to the camp or force them to flee. So the defenders sortie out and fight the mongols. If they can seize that camp (the flag), the mongol army will be forced to retreat because they can no longer feed their men or horses. Their primary target is the main mongol camp where the general resides along with all the food and supplies. Instead, the defenders realize they are stronger, and sortie out for a field battle. They don't have the skill to assault the city, so instead they put it to siege, hoping it will surrender. The mongol horde approaches a walled city. Let me try to create a historical narrative out of your story and see if it makes sense to you: So now war support on both sides +8 and -8. After slaughtering 16/18 raiders with only a few losses on my side the game counts it as defeat.įunnily however, the siege is still ongoing, so I triggered a new sortie, killed the other two raiders (in the same round I "lost" the first epic sortie) and won. So I did lose a few units in trying to get to the flag in the last round. Then I realized without the flag I'm losing. So the mongol kept throwing more reinforcement raiders at it. Apparently raiders cannot hop over fences. The mongols didn't send a single unit capable to enter the city center.
My city was under siege, I added some reinforcements and after a turn or two of trying to defend the front I realized I don't have to. Unless there's a lot of units involved where it completely stops making sense. Usually it ends with one side having no units left. So the motivation to actually capture a flag, especially when having ranged units is rather low. However, there's no drawback in losing a sortie besides war score. The main issue is that the besieged with the sortie counts as attacker and needs to capture a flag. The capture the flag makes not a lot of sense it many cases.
