	If there are easly defended choke points (bridges etc...) 
physicaly fill up all the squares with anyone you have handy. If you are 
unable to clog the natural choke points (too many of them, or they are 
occupied) then you can biuld your own, with rows of footmen or better 
yet, a row of houses.
	Biuld a wall of houses arround you peons.they will thank you for 
it. (this is expensive, but it keeps those nastys away) one catapult 
safely nessled behind your wall of houses will take care of anything that 
the computer can think of attacking you with. I.e. this only works 
against AI not RI. RI will often just rain fire on your enclave etc....
