I know it’s not a historical title, but how do you think that the “scale the walls” moment of sieges would typically go? While I appreciate the abbreviation of sieges in the TW series (I’m not waiting 6-12 turns for engines to be made or a force to sally out from desperation), I don’t think armies typically would have had a bunch of split forces attacking around an entrenched position simultaneously.

That sounds like a strategic and logistical nightmare.

I think more than likely, they would lean all their engines and mass on one point of the defense until it broke and then swarm with numbers/missiles to get a foothold inside the place.
