Jerusalem tower objective siege plan
The Siege of Jerusalem is completed by destroying five towers inside the city. The Dome of the Rock and Jerusalem’s Monasteries must survive, so plan the siege around those protected structures.
Overview
The Siege of Jerusalem is completed by destroying five towers inside the city. The Dome of the Rock and Jerusalem’s Monasteries must survive, so plan the siege around those protected structures.
Plan and execution
Stabilize the economy and use the available Imperial Age access to produce Trebuchets or other siege suited to the walls. Scout firing positions before deploying engines, and remove enemy bases that threaten the siege route without damaging the protected city buildings. Use a mixed escort against heavy cavalry, Pikemen, and siege defenders, then focus each required tower until the objective counter is complete.
Risks and adaptation
The Dome of the Rock and Jerusalem’s Monasteries are failure-critical. Avoid broad siege fire and uncontrolled assaults near those buildings; clear a path to the towers and target them deliberately.
