In light of recent events, I believe that meeting the enemy on the field of battle is still preferable to fighting them on city soil, since our troops don't starve when sallying out compared to defending in the city. *EDIT That and no damage is directly inflicted on the city from the battle.

The advantage to fighting at home its that you actually get your walls and catapults, issue there was honestly more about how you spent like a week during one fight that would end in one to two days at most if you had fought them faster rather than sitting around from the end of spring to the start of fall. Its still far better to fight at home, you can take on VERY numerically and equipment superior armies like so

@@MayTheFay you say this but in practice, your bloody archers just friendly fire each other in the back for no apparent reason and if you step outside your walls with your melee, they just get get enveloped. The catapults are an idea another suggested that I haven't tried though, I guess they must be the special sauce I'm missing :/

@@OshanMan Put your archers on top of your walls, you can build stairs then walk them up there, they're trying to shoot without hiting the walls onf your buildings and slapping themselves, also pretty sure they were mostly taking counter fire from the invaders by the look of where those enemy units parked. Your melee can just sit by your gate and let the enemy crash into them, that plus the fire from your bows on the walls will rout them, and build catapults. Its VERY easy to cheese AI attacks with your walls.

@@OshanMan the friendly fire thing will be addressed in future combat update. The issue seems to be tied to accuracy, so when your archers are very inexperienced sometimes they fire such an innacurate shot that they hit the guy in front of them which of course makes no sense but it has to do with the innacuracy applied to the arrow trajectory. To avoid this put archers in single file! Better still put archers in single file on top of walls, having small archer divisions helps in keeping them single file. Training archers to higher levels also of course helps remove this consideration entirely as they fire accurately (meaning not at the back of the buddy standing in front of them)

I actually figured out what to do with archers so they dont friendly fire at themselves. You need to place them directly towards their target +- 5 degrees. If they dont look directly at the target they just die like idiots from their own arrows for some reason.

so all he had to do was putting his archers on the walls?

The men of the Oshan Imperial Guard died so we may learn: Build a big ass open field behind your walls so you can actually move your dudes without shooting your buildings and self.

I've had frustration with the city combat too. Mine was when my army kept being destroyed by a much smaller army. After a couple reloads it hit me that the problem was the max geared group of five enemy cantors. I was amazed they'd show up so early on, fully geared and just demolish 100 dondorians. I was never able to get the title for being invaded 100 times in earlier patches and wanted to get it done, and wow it still ended up taking forever. I ended up clear cutting the entire forest from my walls to the map edge, filling them and with a ridiculous amounts of artillery, and loving raids again as they were slaughtered lol. There was a point where I had archers hold fire too since replacing them takes ages without archery range speed upgrades. If you watch carefully you can sometimes even see your melee start randomly bleeding as they go to muster. It's still good fun and functional, but I sure hope there are plans for improvement.

Randomly came across your channel searching for Song of Syx tips. New player about 20 hours in and hit 700ish pop, but I just had a mass exodus of upset pigmen, down to 500. Could you update your submission form so I can send my save in for tips/guidance?

Hey mate, I have indeed updated the form in the video description, just know that I cannot guarantee taking a look at yours anytime soon, unfortunately :/ If that's alright with you, here's the link also for your convenience: forms.gle/5yFtHix4Euirx3sA8

From my understanding, you should never attract raiders. Early game its obvious, late game with techs + tons of conscripts on top of city on world map you are safe. Mid game is trickier, piling up too much is risky so... Yeah. Some BS happens. If you cant spend it (like buy a city, etc.) I prefer to pay than deal with that shit...
