The castle owner decides at the moment combat is designated: inside means a siege, outside means a battle. A force of more than two blocks must be outside, and none can stay inside if any are outside. If the owner is the active player and stays inside, no combat occurs there that phase. The owner may fight outside even after staying in earlier.
