Pierre de Wiessant is a bronze sculpture by French artist Auguste Rodin, part of his sculptural group "The Burghers of Calais".  This sculpture represents one of the six burghers who, according to Jean Froissart surrendered themselves in 1347, at the beginning of the Hundred Years' War (1337–1453), in order to save the inhabitants of the French city of Calais from the English laying siege to the city. The Battle of the Herrings was a military action near the town of Rouvray in France, just north of Orléans, which took place on 12 February 1429 during the siege of Orléans.  The immediate cause of the battle was an attempt by French forces, led by Charles of Bourbon, Count of Clermont, to intercept and divert a supply convoy headed for English forces.  The English had been laying siege to the town of Orléans since the previous October.  The French were assisted by a Scottish force led by the Constable of the Scottish army, Sir John Stewart of Darnley.  There are two places called Rouvray in the region in question.  In his biography of Sir John Fastolf, Stephen Cooper gives reasons why the battle probably took place near Rouvray-Sainte-Croix, rather than Rouvray-Saint-Denis.

Hover Force is a video game published by INTV Corporation for the Intellivision video game system in 1986.  The game was initially developed by Mattel Electronics with the intent of it being played in 3-D, but the company was shut down before it could be released; INTV, after acquiring the Intellivision assets from Mattel, re-tooled the game, which pits players against a terrorist group laying siege to a city, and released it itself. The Marinid sultan Abu Yaqub Yusuf was in the Kingdom of Tlemcen laying siege to the Abd al-Wadid capital when he was assassinated.  During this long siege, which had been in place since 1299, the Marinid sultan was unable to prevent a Nasrid-sponsored pretender Othman ibn Idris from landing in Ceuta in 1306 and seizing much of northern Morocco.  The new Marinid sultan Abu Thabit, whose ascendancy was contested by four pretenders, had to choose between pressing the siege or recovering his dominions.  He opted for the latter. The Battle of Guìlíng (桂陵之戰) was fought between the states of Qí and Wei in the Warring States period of Chinese history.  In 354 BC, an army from Wèi was laying siege to Handan, the capital of the State of Zhao.  The next year, Zhao turned to Qi for help.  Tian Ji and Sun Bin, acting as co-commanders of Qi, led an army to save Zhao.  Sun Bin moves south intentionally to make an unsuccessful attack on Pingling, intending to convince Pang Juan that the Qi Army was too weak to achieve victory.  Pang Juan, falling for the ruse, pooled more of his forces to besiege Handan.  Although defeated, the Zhao Army fought desperately and suffered heavy losses to the Wei Army in the subsequent battle.  After feigning defeat at Pingling, Sun Bin led his army directly to the Wei capital, Daliang.  Wei scouts reported that the Qi Army had committed small groups to attack the city.  Upon hearing the report, Wei general Pang Juan took his crack cavalry and left his infantry and supplies at Handan, making a mad dash in an attempt rescue Daliang.  Pang Juan's troops were exhausted as they crossed the Yellow River and were ambushed and destroyed at Guiling by Sun's numerically superior army.  Pang Juan managed to escape alone to Wei. Inchdrewer Castle is a 16th-century tower house in the parish of Banff, Aberdeenshire, in the northeast of Scotland.  Situated on a slight rise 3.5 mi southwest of Banff, it looks across to Banff Bay.  Originally owned by the Currour family, it was purchased by the Ogilvies of Dunlugas in 1557 and became their main family seat.  The Ogilvies were staunch Royalists, which resulted in the castle coming under attack from the Covenanters in 1640.  George Ogilvy, 3rd Lord Banff was murdered in 1713 and his body hidden inside the castle, which was then set on fire.  The castle came under siege again in 1746, during the Jacobite rebellion.  At the start of the 19th century, following the death of the 8th Lord Banff, the property was inherited by the Abercromby of Birkenbog family, who leased it to a tenant.  It became uninhabited after 1836 and the structure deteriorated. Beleaguered Castle is a solitaire card game played with a deck of 52 playing cards.
