In addition to assaulting the stronghold, you have the option of waiting to starve them out. Before attempting this, completely fill your inventory with food items, ideally picking ones that have quantity values of 50/50. Depending on the size of your army, your food supplies may still run down quicker than those of the defenders. When this happens you will need to go get some food, but to do so requires abandoning the siege: the defenders will dismantle your equipment and you will have to build them again, and their food stores will instantly reset to 30 days. ''Warband'' alters this somewhat: you have several game hours (about 30 seconds real time, excluding time spent in menus) to leave the siege and resupply. The defenders will destroy your siege equipment as before, but their food stores will not automatically reset unless you fail to return to the siege within the time limit. | |||

If the enemy outnumbers you, a portion of their forces will sally forth to stop your attack. The defenders only come out in one group; if you manage to defeat them no more will spawn. If you outnumber them or have mostly equal numbers they will stay behind the walls, and this stage will be skipped. | If the enemy greatly outnumbers you by approximately 4 to 1 units, a portion of their forces will sally forth to stop your attack. The defenders only come out in one group; if you manage to defeat them no more will spawn.
