I quite like the addition of keep battles, but a part of it feels a bit hollow. I think that if you are knocked out in the initial siege, you should be able to fight in the keep battle but with lower health, like you did in warband. Also if there are lords defending the settlement they should also be in the keep battle, would make for a great one on one duel to end a siege. Could even extend it to reflect their traits, daring/honest lords will fight in the siege battle, then fall back to the keep with lower health, cautious/dishonest/calculating lords will remain in the keep and then fight you with full health.
Just my little take on it, don't read too much into it.
