The AI in siege battles is absolutely ridiculous. The battering ram and ladder mechanics in particular are bad, but the catapults and balistas aren't great either.
Firstly, battering rams half the time are completely abandoned once the men take down the main gate, and they proceed to rush the walls BUT they refuse to use all the ladders, instead prioritizing one and barely using any of the other other options to get in. Its ends up with a massive slaughter at the top of the walls while men mill around uselessly getting shot at at the foot of one ladder.
I'm sure this has already been said but god damn am I tired of needlessly loosing half my soldiers in an easy siege
