I think, you all think of MC as it would be a realistic medieval simulation. MC is far from being realistic and you can destroy the walls with a good pick more effective than a bomb could. A bomb could even help a defender in the fort because it breaks large holes in the ground, not only in the walls, and you can't enter that easiliy.

When someone would try to siege me, I wouldn't wait but consider:


 * Who is stronger


 * Who has more to loose

And then decide if I immediately prepare for attack or if I escape, maybe through digging a way outside the fort. When I would be attacked before my fort, I wouldn't enter the fort but keep outside, not to get boxed in.
