Free siege equipment?

[Falconiano]

Instead of giving 4 free ladders for sieges I want give 1 siege tower 1 ladder 1 gallery 1 ram (for more siege variety really).
Any idea on how to do this?

As I understand it you can replace the equipment armies start the battle with but you can only replace it with one type. So you can replace the ladders with a single ram or with towers, but not a combination.

I really wanted to mod the siege battles so that the AI started with a ram, towers instead of ladders, and maybe a ballista or two. However the ballista is a moot point because even if the AI knocks down a wall they won't pass through it; they'll still need to open the gate. If you give them towers or better ladders the AI will still at some point try and burn the gate.

So the best solution is to just start the AI with a ram. Someone made a mod that does this already although I can't recall the name of it.

so is there no way to make more slots of free equipment. what says what equipment gets to be added for free instantly at besieging. i thing it's a script but does anyone know where it is ?
