Capturing towers when attacking the enemy

[yeenoghu]

Whenever i besiege a castle or even a town and i clear the walls of all the enemy, i still can't capture the towers and it stays the enemy's and keeps firing at me, even when the enemy are all gathered at the plaza already, is this meant to happen?

No, and I haven't seen this at all.

What happens in M2TW is that towers only fire when they have defenders near them, when those defenders move away the towers are "unmanned" and so do not fire, attackers cannot capture the towers (like you could in RTW).

I haven't seen a bug with this yet so I think you must have missed a defender (perhaps one is "fighting to the death" on the walls?) or maybe the enemy are closer than you think.

If Im wrong please use the stickied bug thread and report it as a bug.

Cheers Aristocrat.

Also troups on the streets close to a tower will sometimes prevent you from capturing it properly. At least this new capture tower feature saves you the hassle of running two units all around the wall just to capture towers, like in RTW.

Oh right that would explain it, cos' i thought it was the same as RTW. Well thanks a lot for that dudes i'll try it again and see if they keep firing with no units nearby i might have missed some. Thanks again!
