Siege Attacker is an attribute which allows the parent army to launch a siege battle immediately by bypassing the requirement to build siege equipment.
A number of units, usually monstrous units and artillery units, have this attribute. Some lords, including legendary lords and their mounts, also have this attribute.
In-game description[ | ]
This unit can attack city gates, allowing you to instantly launch a siege battle without having to wait for towers or battering rams to be built.
