How can I capture a town ?(how many soldiers needed? _wat r good soldiers for that?)
my goal is to capture Rivacheg TY
 
You want high-end melee troops, such as Kings Huscarls (Nord) or Rhodok Swordfighters/Halbediers, backed up with good bowman such as Rhodok Arbelestiers. Order the archers to hold ground near the base of the ramp, let them whittle the defenders down a bit then charge the infantry up the ramp.

EDIT: Grazi Reasons

2nd EDIT: You can also use other high tier troops, depending on which nations you're friendly with. :smile:
 
I use Elite rangers, and a smattering of cavaliers. I will assault 4 or 5 times and just let my rangers pound the defenders, each time they will lose 30 - 50 depending on the town (Wercheg is the easiest...) and once all their archers and berserker types are dead I send in the cav... This is the best tactic I think on Rhodok territory, but also harder because the Arbelestiers are very mean... but if you ca bring 50 or 70 top tier ranged and 30 or 40 top tier infantry or Swadian nobles then it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Of course you need to start the process with close to 100 morale as possible.
 
Trial and error, Zetso!

The towns can have wildly varying garrisons depending on what stage of the game you are at, so have a look first and then bring the right tools for the job.
 
Yet it's still ranged units > rest when attacking mostly.
Of course that's not true when the defenders suddenly decide that they will start to come down the ramp and chop you up.
 
No need for that. 100 Elite Rangers/Arbalestiers + some Champion Huskarls and the thing is yours.
 
Oh man, you should siege the Khergits. I was just growing bored with conquering the world when I headed down there. Their castles (not their towns) add so much to the siege thing. I recommend Asugan. It took me several goes to get that.
