Pretty much is my understanding. Might help if you have a pickaxe or sledgehammer equipped. Soak on a claim totem is 10, so you need 49, 81, or 100
STR respectively--hammer, pick, stone axe.

The claim obviously has authority, then. Maybe you just have permissions there due to the "white" category being flagged. I thought you'd get an error message for this, too, but maybe not.

There's been so many changes to sieges over the last year, it could be a siege engine is required for destroying an active claim now. I'd have to dig up patch notes to be sure.

It seems that fully dried Palisade and active Private Claims aren't bashable by hand and ingame this is indicated only by inability to click them with destroy cursor.
