Attacking Walls and Buildings
The best way to tear down walls is by using siege equipment such as catapults, trebuchets, mortars and rocket launchers. If however these are not available (or have been destroyed), there are alternatives. Laddermen and siege towers can dock against enemy walls allowing your troops to climb up onto the tops of the walls. Simply select a ladderman or siege tower, hover over the wall and right click when the dock icon appears.
If all else fails then walls and buildings can also be targeted using troops. To target a building, wall, tower or gatehouse, select a troop and right click on the structure. A pickaxe icon will appear when a
building or wall is under the mouse. If the building cannot be attacked, the pickaxe will be tinted red. For example, keeps are invulnerable and cannot be destroyed.
Tip: The ninja is the only unit that can climb onto walls without using a staircase, ladder or siege tower.
