Bug or Feature?

[Venero]

Anyone else notice how your reward for fighting off a siegeing army of 1000+ is precisely ****? ... You get absolutely no loot for your efforts. Same goes for actually doing the siegeing. You get nothing for all your troubles.

In my Kingmaker game, I started out as most of those games do, with just myself and a pretty fragile claim to a crown I have no buisness having, so naturally the other Kings want to make short work of this upstart and send their marshalls down my throat. Whereupon my army of 200 Swadian Sharpshooters and 80 Swadian Sergeants (admittedly funded by cheats) make short work of them with me getting about half the kills in the battle.

Now once the smoke clears, I get absolutely nothing for all my trouble. I might have even been able to fund that army without cheating if I had the ability to loots their less then meagre army of all the belongings they littered my walls with.

So is the lack of a siege loot screen a bug or feature? If a bug, it should be fixed, if it's a feature, it should be 'corrected'.

You do get the castle/town ....

Haha that's sort of funny.... made me laugh

You already have it, you get to keep it but sometimes you gotta wait in that castle for a week before the attackers launch the assault; a little morale gain would be great.

*grins* I do realise I 'get' the town/castle, but on defence that is not really as cool as it sounds. You get to 'keep' it or more likely, whatever Lord owns the place gets to keep it. I was talking more about the monetary gain that all that loot you just earned would have gotten you. It's just a shame that's all.

At the end of the battle there are piles of weapons just lying around, and the loot screen filled with the stuff of some 8-10 defeated Lords should be pretty impressive, is all. They were mine to kill, so their stuff should be mine to loot

I wondered about this too. No loot screen after siege battles. Also, no recruit/prisoner screen. And you can't capture lords...was this fixed in 1.110?

If you are in the defense I think it is a feature, but in the offense I think it is a bug.

^^ what he said ... as for the defense when the enemy leave he takes what's his with him. unless you massacred 'm!
I'm not bothered about the siege the thing ... what bothers me is the loots in general ... I had the possibility to take horses and such. now apart for some Good piece of armor or a good bow. all the rest is garbage.

Yeah, no loot after defending against a 1000+ siege seems wrong to me.
