I have also noticed the sieges are extremely rare but most of my campaigns have only lasted for 100-150 days.  At that point I usually get bored and start a new game.  From my experience I've only seen 1 or 2 attempts by my faction AI to capture an enemy castle or city.  I'm not sure if I like it better this way or not.  It's kind of boring without sieges but it's also annoying when a faction gets too powerful and starts to dominate the map...

well, it quite simple really.

Its all about the Marshall. If he is a woos, then all he does is pillage.

If he is a man of honour, not controversy, he will besiege. Besiege and conquer, castle after castle!

Couldnt believe it untill i saw it with my own player! At first i thought there is some script error or something but no. Then other marhall came and there we were, looting and burning again...

Off topic answer - if you check the stats of helms and armours, you'll see that helms provide really good protection, which is quite logical considering their material. No more easy knight hs kills :P
Not quite sure about the fog, sorry.

Then it's up to you to calm it down. You could play longer games doing this. :wink:

Personnally I had a good amount of sieges all over the map during the 300/400 first days of my game. In fact the geopolitical situation has changed a lot. (Did you know Granata was an english town? :lol:)
But starting from there, the siege frequency slowed down, an no one was occuring between day 600 and day 800. Then Glaschu became english, and another I-don't-know-where siege failed, so it seems to start again. And it was the same situation : battles, only looting...

But there is a problem with time in game, like 20 days truces during 20 weeks. We were discussing it few days ago, maybe this problem is related too?


For the marshall thing, so every marshall of every faction in my game is a woos?(Don't know what it means...) But sure they are fags. :mrgreen:
I'll check controversies then...

It is only my guess. I have 4th campaign now and that I have observed. If I am a simple vassal with village the most factions burning villages only. Very rare I see the note of some besiege and conquer. When I get the castle this note come little bit more often. But when I get the first city often-often. And when I have the kingdom all factions became crazy. Cities, castles move from faction to faction. 200 days of my kingdom - 6 factions already  dissapeared for this short period. I mean there may be some trigger in scripts about this matter...

Offtopic - fog. Switch on cheats and press Ctrl ~. Wright -   cheatmenu . In camp menu find cheat menu, change weather, reduce fog. To hide cheatmenu wright -   nocheatmenu

It would surprise me... I got full faction's fury at the beginning, and before day 400 several factions were remodeled/wiped out. Then the great peace time I was talking about in the time bug's thread, then the only looting stuff, and now as I said they restart to conquer.(Too soon to be really sure)

And I always was enlisted somewhere. I never had even a single troop in now 820 days. :lol: :mrgreen:

head armor is usually around 90, and body armor is around 50, that's the cause of 0 damage head shot. To me, maybe it's kind of unrealistic
