Rebelled against Sanjar Khan after taking a castle for him and he wouldn't give it to me. *pout* Harlaus comes ambling along immediately after, so had to try to defend it; seventy-some Khergits against over 300 Swadians. Won that, because I pulled my men off the walls, and had them standing in the courtyard; any time some twit poked his head up after climbing the ladder, we took it off. This is sometimes
much better than staying on the walls, as you have an effective numerical advantage when you're all piled into the courtyard, and they're coming right off the ladder; five of them crest the top, and all of your guys unload on them. Obviously, they still managed to get into the courtyard a few times, and we took so many casualties that we folded like a wet cardboard box when the
next, even bigger army arrived the following day, but it was still very gratifying to win against odds like that.
Of course, this
did take several tries. For the one universe among the many of the multiverse where I won, my sorry hide was hung from the walls in a dozen others.
EDIT: Oh, wait, you're trying to
get them to attack you. I can honestly say that I've never had the problem of them not attacking me, but I wish that I did.
