Can ranged tactic attackers (Archer, Trebuchet) attack a Fortification?
The rule text and a later reply allow it, but the designer's one direct reply says no, and nobody has reconciled the two.

Contested. Any normal attack can hit a Fortification, neutral, friendly or enemy, occupied or not, and an occupied fort is attacked first. The rules say "any attack that can normally be made against a unit" may target a fort, and a 2024 reply and other players read that as letting Archers, Trebuchets and Crossbowmen hit one. But the designer's only direct reply (2022) answered "yes" to a question asserting that Archer and Trebuchet cannot attack forts. Neither reading is settled officially; agree on one before play.
