2) Get a couple of warlords to the B dragons and take out more seige. Maybe not all, but hopefully enough. Ansom feinting through the tunnels implies he doesn't feel that is a good way to attack. He would rather surround the walls and look for an unknown and possibly non-existent weak point. He insists to Vinny that the seige is more important than almost anything else. By opting for the Hunt, he knowingly put himself, Vinny, and his forest-capable units in jeopardy. Therefore taking out the rest (or most of the rest) of the seige means that the coalition would need to go through the tunnels.
