Automatic fire?!?!?!!?!???!!?!?

Err hello i was wondering how i could reduce the rate of fire caused by towers because i swear those towers fire at the rate of submachine guns and i lose more soilders then a hoedown at a whorehouse.....so is there anyway to tone down their rate of fire and make their arrows do less damage?? Cause it is a little bit annoying to see my dismounted feudal knights get massacared by 1 minute of arrow fire from TOWERS...

Hm I have a similar question. Is it possible to reduce the fire rate of towers (i know this is possible) and increase the damage fire arrows have on siege equipment? So if you would have a large amount of archers they would be the ones causin' the havoc, not the towers? Because I think the towers shouldn't be enough to set alight seige equipment, you would have to have enough archer.

i actually like the tower's rate of fire.

it makes sense that any tower would be full of archers and that those archers would be firing as fast as they could.

after all, isn't the purpose of a tower to be a vantage point for archers to fire from?

What I would like to know is if we could change the way towers work back to the way it worked in RTW ... where you could capture a tower. I hate it when I have fought and captured the walls run right through the tower chased their troops to their square and then a cavalry unit rides by and suddenly the towers start firing again it is ridiculous ... but this must be hardcoded right?

It was the same in RTW, only they fired on the enemy once you captured them, wich was even more ridiculous, since you can imagine the towers being filled with militia needing nearby pro soldiers to fire, but noty militia then firing on their own people.
