I lost bigtime, which is ridiculous... The simulator said I would've won with losing about half my cavalry and ending in 62 morale. I know the simulator is not exact but how could I lose this? Also, I once tried attacking a lvl 4 fortress with 21 rams and I got hammered. I just got my lvl 5 fortress smashed to bits by 21 rams and 1k swordsmen... (none of the fortresses had any extra's like curtain wall). Do swordsmen really make that much of a difference? I just can't seem to win any fights.

You had only 21 battering rams to destroy a garrisoned fortress level 4, which would make it impossible without swordsman, rams suffer damages along with the Infantry on the 1st line. Light cavalary and archers don't help in destroying fortress walls. After the siege engines, swordsmen are the best unit solution while attacking Fortresses.
