Impossible to win battle with reinforcements
Sorry if someone already mentioned this but i just get so pissed off and angry when for example :
Played as British , year 1812 BIG really BIG battle vs French allied with Spanish.
No reinforcements on my side , about 2k people on theyre ins tart of game and 3k more later on, after around 2 and half hours of fighting i win with a hand full of men left on my side and what you know i cant finish the battle, because there is no more enemy on map everyone ran away, but the meater which shows balance of forces still shows to me that there are STILL like 1/9 of it red ( enemy units still present on battle ) but there are NONE , i checked every corner of map evreathing , there are none , so that makes impossible to win battle. Same thing happened to me today when i tried to play as Prussia.
Any way to solve this or its just one of these Bugs?

Re: Impossible to win battle with reinforcements
I was actually going to report this bug myself when I saw your message. There usually is one random soldier stuck to a piece of scenery. You need to zero in real close using the radar map and slowly scroll along until you see him. Happened to me twice leading to frustrating defeats. For example I was massively outnumbered by two French armies. My Prussian forces through artful use of artillery and my line infantry fighting like gods we beat back both forces and inflicted massive casualties but then I notice the battle isn't over and saw the red dot on the corner of my radar screen and searched all over until I see some French militia guy stuck in a running position against a barn right at the very edge of the red line. I rained artillery in his position to no avail and couldn't get my troops close enough to accidentally bayonet him. It was awful to have done so well and be undone by this stupidity.
Same thing happened in another battle where a reinforcement unit gets stuck on a house as it tries to enter the field and engagement and because its between the red zone and the engagement zone it never fully materialized so it was invulnerable and not going anywhere.
I've seen some funky path finding issues in other releases of the game but never in my memory was entire battles ruined because random soldiers got "stuck" on the scenery.
