You should engrish better.
My tip regarding defense: get 14 pts in tactics or set combat size to 2k+.
Considering that in a 'normal siege', 200 defenders crumble to 3k+ attackers, this scenario is definitely representative of what should be happening.
So either get more defenders so that the combat ratio is not so lopsided, or man up and take the bad with the good.
Or you do what I do, take to the field and crush those spawns before they reach your city. Those 'rather powerful' mobs are 90% maiden cavalry/armsmen and bandits. You can kill them off with 300-400 units easily.
Not everyone is native speaker bobknight, and some idiosyncratic mistakes can occur, so try not to breath deeply while reading my post due to some grammar mistakes.
Just joking.... please put that heavy looking axe away ^^
On a more serious note - Yeh that's what i thought. Maidens, bandits etc are all good. Until things like Bearclaw Berserkers and Hero adventurers started climbing the ladder....
I pointed out was the City´s name, for the reason, that each castle, city, etc has different spawn points, and i thought it even has a different number of preset spawns that control how much of each (both attackers and defenders) get to zone in. Though i guess thats not it.
**I will however try the trick with battle size. Might work
EDIT: Ok so i tried to fiddle around with the battle size, and it didn't help at all. The thing is when i fight enemy lord i get about the same sized force as he is. But when i attack one of the neutral armies, it spawns me with a friction of my force while the enemy gets to deploy pretty much a standard force of what would (normally) be I able to do as well...
Don't tell me that a random Hero Adventurer rolls with Tactic skill 50.... I mean come on, i don't want instant win button, but at least give me a fair chance to fight. Zoning me in with less than 10 units while enemy has 50+.... really ? what is this, sigh...
This is the start of the battle against a 987 Mystmountain army. They zoned in with 60 units, i zoned in with 6......

Is this supposed to be a normal occurrence ? As i said, when i fight with enemy lords, the difference between the army size is.... well... more fair in all honesty. I fought battle where it was 3/4 of theirs against one mine. But we still got about the same amount of units zoned so i could grind them down through several continuous battles.
Is there like no way for this to be even ? If they get 60 guys, well give me at least 50....30 even.... but 6 ?... 6?! Ha-ha-ha game...
Anyway, thanks for the advice guys. Will try to fiddle with it a bit. Might try taking them out in the field to cull their numbers (though it feels like a suicide to be completely honest) a little, or just pump up tactics after my companion reserved for that role levels up a bit.
