oli56: I am coming to a point, on the first mission, where I have acquired all the provinces except for the enemy city, as the guards are too strong for my army. As this is the first time I am playing, I have made several mistakes and lost my army several times, so I get back from start with new units every once in a while. The problem is that I can't get my units to become sufficiently powerful to attack the enemy city. Since I cannot get larger army, cannot build new buildings in town, it seems I will never be able to grow a powerful enough army for take down the enemy city. Looks like a gameplay flaw to me.
