Rome Total War German Chronicles 7: Sieging Gauls again



This siege is not a huge battle, but it shows some strategies to capture a city. In the very beginning you notice that I rush into the city and take a defensive stand against the incoming Warband. When you consider it, you could call my strategies of siege as "the best offence is a good defence". What I mean by that is that by advancing, then defending, then advancing, you end up winning far easier then by rushing.

At the end you noticed that I engage the enemies from 2 fronts, that's really important when you use a barbarian faction. Your troops will get tired and might very well panic. Also Always try to engage with your phalanx first, the axe man while good, take far more casualties then a phalanx in general. So they are best fit when it comes to attacking in the back of the enemy army.
