This is probably my best bet. Unfortunately, it's only turn 20, and I haven't started recruiting indies yet, and most of my provinces are allready crappy in terms of gold generation/resource generation. Plus, the supply factor.
The situation is this-Ctis has spend I would guess around 18 of his 20 turns recruiting some sort of priest (maybe even every turn). The kings have reanimated tomb chariots for most of his army (along with some purchased guys, of course).
Earlier, he had two armies and was attacking into my territory, but I cut him off, and essentially destroyed his main armies and a lot of kings with my domain+hero. The problem now is that when I went to attack his castle (he's down to 2 provinces, one right next to his home fort and his home fort), I ran into another army also attacking. I won, but that took a huge chunk out of my forces. Ctis then sent his 12 priests and chariots out, and banished my army away, breaking the siege. I need to know how to get through him castling, since he's still gonna be getting new troops from reanimation. I'm afraid to turn away and start another war, simply because I don't want to try fighting 2 fronts, one with an army that's about 5x as useful against me as anyone else. The other person who mightve took the fort lost too much in his battle against me (my message was late) so has turned away.
