Total War: Warhammer 2 Sieges

Someone on the total war subreddit was saying that it's easy for factions with archers to "cheese" sieges, capturing them whilst taking little or no damage, due to archer's ability to arc fire over the walls - and they're right. But they also asked how gunpowder factions could do it since they are direct fire and can't shoot over walls. A couple people (including me, obviously) responded to them saying that you can still "cheese" sieges with direct fire, and I explained via text how to do so. But a picture's worth a thousand words, so here are 5 siege battles using direct fire units to demonstrate how to do it.

- Early game Skaven, using Ikit Claw, a unit of Ratling guns, and a few catapults to knock a hole in the wall.
- Mid game Skaven, Ikit Claw's a lot more powerful, he has a Plague priest backing him up, and fully upgraded Ratling guns.
- Early game dwarfs - I chose Grombrindal since he starts with a direct fire unit (Irondrakes).
- Mid game dwarfs - same as before but now with a bunch of Thunderers
- Lizardmen. Not that you'd ever bother with ranged units in a faction that's all about magic and giant Dinosaurs, but the redditor did specifically ask about them.

Apologies in advance for the rough cuts and the dodgy mic quality, I'm not a dedicated youtuber or streamer and don't habitually record my gameplay so I played through these campaigns just long enough to grab some recorded fights to use as examples.
