However, a properly prepared defensive position with it's flanks secured is near impossible to defeat without adequate weapons and equipment - just take a look at WWI for a exaggerated example (trench systems crossing Europe, miles of depth, barbed wire, mines, artillery support, etc, etc).
Even a small building complex which has been prepared will resist most attacks against it. Board up/block windows and doors, sandbags to increase wall thickness in firing positions, etc. Without heavy weapons and explosives (or sitting back and starving them out), it's going to be very costly!
Of course if the defenders have a covered line of withdrawal/resupply the whole game changes.
