Casting Rituals on Provinces being Seiged.

I have a question. Lets say one nation is seiging another nation in their castle, and neither one of those nations are yours.

If you cast a ritual attack spell on that province, such as seeking arrow, would it attack one of the commanders seiging the castle or one of the defenders inside? Or is it random.

And lets say the spell attacks the whole army instead, such as flames from the sky. Does it effect the attackers, defenders, or both?

I think these kind of spells usually target the army outside the walls. I'm not quite sure, though.

Needs testing. With all the weird stuff going on with sieges, like the indie event timewarps and such, it's anybody's guess.

I was hoping someone would know the answer to this. To test this I would need to use three different nation. I will tell you all the results once I find it.

Having experienced the Wild Hunt/siege bug, I really hope this stuff is resolved in the next patch >

Hahahaa, that bug is still in? Man, that one is a big deal, too!

I know that when I cast Manifestation on a castle I was sieging as C'tis recently, it attacked one of my own commanders. I did this twice just to make sure. My guess is that it targets the owner of the province, and not of the fort.

Yes, it's fixed in the next patch.

Last turn in my MP game enlightened me and I will share with you.

Plan: Send an ashen angel (Manifestation) for each enemy commander sieging my castle. All longdead horsemans and iron dragons would die vanishing without leaders

Result: All of the angels killed mages of mine who were tranquil inside the castle.

Mental note: Seems like magic assasinations target people inside. Or... I am too unlucky (4 angels all against me)

Edit: No, one of his commanders was targeted, the devil commander. So it must be random
