Atm its already possible to do field battles during a normal siege as calbeius pointed out, you simply have to agree with the defender to do it outside the city. They might not want to give up their defensive position but maybe if you promise to do it aswell when they siege they might?

However I dont think we will add field battles in the rules the way you ask for them as the armies would still have to be 10 units max for lag purposes, and the rewarding would be quite difficult, staff doesnt have the time to record small amount of land losses or gains nor would this be easy to implent.

So yeah I dont see this going to be implanted in the rules as an alternative or addition to normal sieges, however its already possible to do during sieges as long as you agree with the defender. We might do an event at some point with somrthing like a field battle but apart from that, you will just have to keep doing your RP fights.
