3) And if you didn't have manpower to waste, you'd throw things* using whatever catapults you could come up with.
4) Storm the castle. If you need an idea of that... just watch the orcs in Lord of the Rings a few times. (ladders, grappling hooks, climbing on each others' heads...) Usually used after one of the first three. (I'm ignoring #5, Siege, because that takes a tad too long.)
You forgot about the good old seige.
Nothing demoralizes an army quite like starving them out.

Fortress Fury is available for iOS and Android devices. It is basically PvP Crush the Castle, or for the newer crowd, PvP Angry Birds
