Siege is a special attack mode. You can attack other players as long as they are not in beginner’s protection or banned.
In order to attack a player using the siege option, you need ram, troops and a target.
A target may be chosen using the map, the statistics button or by entering the name or coordinates of the village/city you want to attack in the Rally Point.
The siege mode allows for an additional bonus of 33% on attacking strength. This bonus gives Teutons the possibility of a total extra bonus of 60% which includes the Brewery. On top of that is the hero bonus of 20%, which adds up to a nice bonus of 1.92. For Gauls and Romans, too, the siege mode in combination with the hero bonus considerably increases the attacking strength of offensive armies.
This bonus can be extremely effective, particularly against Wonders of the World, stationary defensive armies and villages within a range of two to four hours. The added travelling time is definitely worth the high attack bonus.
The only “disadvantage” here is the doubled travelling time of the offensive army and that players have to send at least 1,000 units and at least one ram among them.
In the Map view, click on the village/city you wish to siege. Select "Send troops". Next enter the number of troops you wish to send and select "Attack: Siege". Click “Continue”.
Click “Send” and the army will be sent.
You will receive a report once the siege is over with the results.
