Hey guys, I'm a huge fan of the mod, but until recently have been playing in single player. I plan to join a server, amass an army, and lead it in epic sieges against my enemies. There is however, one problem. All somebody needs to do is place a banner in their base and it is completely untouchable. This seems to somewhat defeat the purpose of building thick walls and moats in your base, as your opponent is hopelessly stuck outside no matter what, unable to open the gate or smash through the walls. It seems like banners would be extremely overpowered without some way to counter them, but none have come to my attention. Am I missing something in plain sight? Is there a way to defeat a banner-wielding opponent?
