I'm playing Warsword Conquest as an independent wandering lord and am stuck on how to progress. I have the pirate culture and am trying to conquer a Skaven fort, I run into the problem of the defenders rushing out to defeat me and my army is mostly consisting of ranged units. My renown is about 400 and my party can get into only like 105 units.

Any tips on how to take a fort? Should I just farm renown or just cheese the system on an easier fort?
