Well, you could throw in an "Gate Cleaver", that would help (I hope I got the name right).
There is some info on sieging here :

Basically, your nice SCs are worth perhaps 5 militias each when it comes to breaching the walls, not enough to do it. They just don't have the numbers to do it.
Solution : give theł magic items designed to breach wall (axe of cleaving is the one I know), of bring in an army to do it.
