Help Reequired!!!!

On thursday I'm playing in a lustria campaign game (Woo! I hear you cry!) I'm using black orcs and I'm facing 3 armies, 2 Dwarf and one wood elf (new rules)each of 1000 points...

So what I hear you cry, well thge twist is this, it's a seige and they are all hidden in a castle, in lustria... Good news for me is I get 6000 (that's right SIX THOUSAND) points on my army (twice the size of the beleagured forces) Now that's nice but I have no experience of breaking into castles. I'm going to use 6 seige towers (600 points in total) and 5, possibly 6 giants... is there anything else anyone can suggest?

To be honest I have only played in a few seige battles and those have been as the defender.

I'm not sure how useful seige towers are going to be against that many Dwarf Cannons (no doubt) all though they might last a little while with them only doing D3 Wounds, It will also stop them ripping through ranks of your expensive Black Orc infantry.

I'd take a lot of Orcs with two hand weapons, you will need those extra attacks to be able to actually hit anything when you are trying to clear the ramparts.

Giants aren't all that great in seiges I don't think to be honest so I wouldn't invest in all that many, perhaps 3?.
