Siege rework is terrible

Problem is siege is like a game-ending weapon, the fourth winning condition in the game. The unit that counter siege shouldn’t be too effective against other units, otherwise mass-spamming this unit would have no counter. This was exactly the role of springald before the patch and it was doing its job to prevent siege from being abused. Ppl don’t realize this fact and suggested removing springald role. Now the previous equilibrium was completely broken and everything is chaotic.

Also keep in mind that this game has infinite resources. This is why we cannot remove siege or nerf them too much. We need them to end games! Many mechanisms in Aoe4 are developed based on the infinite resource idea, so it would also cause a series of problems if they suddenly make it finite. Like I said, the siege counter siege mechanism was the best we can have at present stage, unless new unit types are added to the game.

Does siege end the game? Professional games lasted more than an hour, even three hours
