How big are the cities in this game?

Like, how huge is a huge city compared to R:TW? And on that point, how long would a siege take in a huge city?

Just wondering.

i think the req for a huge city is 20000, which is lower than RTW. it should be no harder to seige than a huge city in RTW but if you want to play a REALLY hard seige go with assaulting a citadel, those things are nigh- impossible without gunpowder seige units

Did he mean the population size or the size of the city itself?

Think he doesnt have the game and wants to know how Impressive the Cities are.
They are About the Size of Roman Cities in RTW (bit bigger)
But theyre Glowing and shining,so be sure of having much eyecandy.
big cities even have Ponds.

Also, There are Castles,Fortresses and Citadels,the Military kind of Settlements.Theyre just for defence and take a hell load of time and work to be taken.I fended off 4 Mongol full stacks at my Citadel of Tiflis.
Think about it,they even had trebuchets and Rocketlaunchers.
