A quirk of the rules is that _any_ commander, whether or not it belongs to the sieging nation, can storm the fort, but will have to fight the besiegers first. This means that a stealthed army can be instructed to storm a fort that another nation has cracked; they will fight the besiegers and then whatever is inside the fort.
