    Don't hurt me I'm a newbie here, but I think a nice thing to see in any RTS that still uses bows and arrows is to have archers on the walls. You could simply have wall models with a set number of unit slots on top. Archers would garrison the walls and take positions on the slots and start firing upon any opposition within range. Units on the wall would get a defense bonus not to mention be free from melee cavalry and infantry attacking them directly. Enemy archers and catapaults would probably be some good ways to knock them out in a more direct sense.

    Ladders could be added into the game. Being trained very cheaply at wherever other siege weaponry is built and when trained, an empty ladder would sit out with no one to take it, requiring some three-four men to be attached to it and carry it over to the wall. They can easily be detached from the ladder and continue to the fight while it sits there.

    Just an idea though and it might add a new strategy to tackling walls rather than having soldiers poke at them with a pila until they collapse.

    Take a good hard look. :)

    No ladders though.
