Shogun 2: Total War announced

The computer in the tutorial just beat the everliving s*** out of me in the siege.

I am . . . Intrigued.

It seems the AI really knows how to play sieges, at least on the defensive. And the Japanese-style defense of luring you into several cascading layers of killzones until you reach the top plays straight into their hands. Also, ninjas don’t like arrows much.

Actually, I love when there are holes in the walls and the computer is attacking. It’s like a magnet to them and I can concentrate my defensive force there, knowing they will march in to slaughter.

Well, yeah, when there’s only one or two breaches sure.

I make half a dozen at a minimum (or one per full defending unit - units damaged by crumbling the walls under their feet don’t get their own breach), either spread out across an entire side or one opposite sides if I can. I don’t want to march into slaughter, you see ?
