You cannot fire the siege engine is the main game. They give you bonuses to teh combat only.

Then before playing cards players rolls 1 dice for 1 siege engine (max 2). Player who will have more hits (5+) have superiority. Superiority gives +1 in combat dice to yours army and -1 to enemy army (shadow still hit on 6). After battle player who have superiority can fight 1 more round without loosing elite unit (shadow player) or force enemy to end battle (free player). Is it corect?? Sorry for my english - i am from poland.

You are almost correct:
If the Shadow player has superiority, the Free Peoples army receives a -1 to the Combat roll in the first round of battle. If, at the end of the first round, the Shadow player has superiority he may extend the battle by one round without reducing an Elite unit.
If the Free Peoples player has superiority, the Free Peoples army receives a +1 to the Combat roll in the first round of battle. If, at the end of a combat round, the Free Peoples player has superiority, the Shadow player may not extend the length of the battle by reducing Elite units.
In addition to this combar effects can be played to alter the chances of hitting.

No dice are rolled to determine Superiority. The side with the most Siege Engines gets it, unless there is a tie, in which case the Free Peoples may claim Superiority by removing one Trebuchet.

Considering the Siege Engine Superiority Rules, "If, at the end of the first round, the Shadow player still has superiority, he may..." and the equivelent rule for the Free Peoples, how, apart from the play of the "Amongst the Siege Engines" combat card effects, can the number of seige engines alter during a round?

My siege engine question is: Can one use Last Defenses in a sally? The card says Play only if a FP Engine is in the battle. Since the engine is killed if the free are wiped out, that's one piece of evidence supporting it. The other is that they're catapults, and throw big rocks long distances. On the other hand, its really, really obvious to me that this isn't the intended interpretation.

You are correct, it won't work since the Siege Engines aren't part of the battle in a sally attack.

The only way I can see to remove siege engines during a round is through the use of combat cards...what other ways are there?

Freeple can eliminate one if the score is tied, obviously.

Freeple can eliminate one if the score is tied, obviously. But in that case you (as a SA player) can´t continue the battle - because FP gain superiority in the beginning of combat round.

Exactly, which is why I'm confused...there seem to be limited ways in which to remove siege engines during a round...
