Siege Towers & Battering Rams

[Archaeopterix]

hello all:

I wonder if I can remove the siege towers and battering rams, so that the troops, who assaulted an settlement (when they do it) only attack with his artillery... I can do it ?

(sorry my poor english if someone dont understand)

thanks in advance for any response. greetings.

Oh wow,KIKI delivery service heh.

It is rare that an AI will have artillery when attacking your settlements or forts. To exclude the AI from using siege equiptment:towers,ladders etc,honestly wrecks the game. How can the AI attack you,unless they starve you out? For game balance,I would not edit it out,as it also means you can't attack them easily as well,and the game will get boring. I do not recommend it,out thinking an enemy and winning against the odds makes a great game. Too easy and aghhhh,boring.

But editing wise,hmm Aradan is more cluey on this. The game may screw up if they are removed so I don't try(thought about this myself before).

its true, but... depending on which era we are playing... Playing in roman timeframe (or medieval, or something thus...), yes its must bored very much.

... my plan not include ladders, only siege towers and rams... this boys will need the ladders , but the towers and rams, I find some non-historical for my idea.

I have faith that everything can be okay, just wanted to know if this is possible; without the game engine starts to wonder: "where is this?, or that?" ... ie... not absolutely necessary for the game there are siege towers and battering rams ...?

if this is possible ... I only should delete the towers and rams in descr_engines file?, or I should do more?

thanks.

P.D.: ... im work on RTW+BI, of course
