~20th of Hearthfire

The Dragoons, which were far better marksmen than any normal archers would ever be, rode around and shot their bolts straight through the arrow slits, killing several archers inside. In the meantime, the dead mages were simply replaced with others, and with the guards above fresh out of boiling oil, ten more Atronachs were simply summoned, which did the job of their predecessors just fine.

Now, however, the mages would need to enter the gatehouse, which was far more dangerous than standing outside, so a "turtle" was formed: the mages were escorted by a group of soldiers, who would raise their rectangular shields above, in front, behind and to the sides of the formation, shielding the, from arrows, oil and rocks alike. The group pushed into the building, where they repeated the process they had previously carried out on the next gate.
