My first question is what is the easiest way to defeat a siege tower approaching your walls? I used to use my flame arrows to set it on fire but a.) it didn't always work and b.) I've gotten to the part of the game where all the siege towers are armor plated. I've been suffering a lot of defeats and I'm losing a lot of the territory I gained from defeating Gaul and Britannia.
My second question is why more people don't talk about using Onagers in this game. I have completely abandoned my archers because of how much success I've been having with the onagers. They have an amazing capacity to kill and they fire from distances far enough away that units don't charge you like they always do when I've used archers.
Plus, with the onagers I've created an awesome strategy to defend my towns. First, I create as many onagers as I can. Then when my town comes under assault I will instantly attack with my onagers. I'll attack until all my ammo runs out and then I speed up the time until the battle comes to an end. I do this on every single turn and can usually defeat a large army in 5 turns or less without leaving my city walls or suffering a single death.
