The best way to prevent a sieging force from burning your colony down is to go out and kill them before they even have a chance to shoot at it.  Even on a large map you should be able to get to them on time.  And most of them will try to keep building while you're picking off their sentries.

Is it imbalanced? I just sent all my colonists to gun em down. It's worked okay so far (but on open maps I had much more difficulty, I'm playing on large hills right now)

 _ I once don't have enough fire power to fight against siege because i have many melee pawns. Then i found that they have sleep need, so i wait till they sleep, pick 2 guys come out and steal their mortar lol

Why have I not thought of that!? That's f*cking hilarious!

Definitely going to try this on my next play through

(I haven't started an A15 game yet, because I'm waiting for 15c to be officially released)

I luckily got out of a seige event once without the use of sniper rifles. Early game and my 5 pawns were only equipped with a few shotguns and a rifle then a 7 man siege came up. What I did was look around the ancient structures for anything useful and then I found an insanity lance. I positioned my people behind a nearby hill and then when everything was ready, I had my sole pacifist back home activate the lance on a shielded raider in the middle of the camp. He distracted the snipers while my colonists moved in and shotgunned them in the face. The berserk raider went down half-way through the fight and 4 raiders remained. One fell down and the rest retreated.

I won in the end with only a few gunshot wounds.

If you don't have any shields or long range weapons, I suggest maybe hiding inside a mountain where mortars can't get ya or opening up ancient structures then luring the mechanoids/space soldiers inside to the raider camp. If there is a lance or something in there, use the strategy above.
