Siege Escalation in TW:Warhammer

Torchvein

I'm aware that CA have only just began to feed in info concerning sieges, but I was curious if anyone had picked up anything about whether they are carrying siege escalation into Warhammer. I feel that it was implemented fairly well in Attila (though some refinements could of course be made), and after reading the Dev Blog on sieges I feel that there's a lot of potential for it to work even better in Warhammer. I personally really like what they say they're doing with sieges (though of course we haven't actually seen it in motion), and I feel that there's a lot more that they can do with escalation now; think of entire streets blocked off or barricaded, creating advantages for the defenders to exploit as well as for the attackers.

So as I said, has anyone heard anything? And what do people want CA to do with the escalation mechanic, in TW Warhammer and other future entries in the franchise?

I asked before but I didn't get an answer. I would love siege escalation to make a return. It was one of Attila's best features. At the very least I do hope it has the city burning mechanic. I would love to set Empire cities alight!

Pretty sure they said in their first dwarven campaign vid there is no siege escalation

We haven't even really seen if you can knock down the walls with cannons/catapults when you actaully fight the sieges.

Well in the siege blog they speak of allied AI's exploiting breaches you've made...
