Missing Reinforcements in Battle!!

[G.Assassin]

Hi all,

I haven't seen anything on this in the Forum, so apologies if it has already been discussed, but it is something that is really annoying me. I have only noticed this after Patch 2.

In a couple of combined land and Sea battles when attacking a settlement (one as Suebi and one as Rome) I have fought, my re enforcing army has only turned up with half its force. The other half just do not appear in the battle. Before any one says the total number of units I had between the main army and reinforcing army was only around 30, so was not above the max 40 limit.

This is especially annoying given that I was fighting greater odds in the first place.

Is this a known bug?!

I'm only playing on very high settings and I know my RIG is more than capable of handling 40 units on this setting.

Cheers for any advice you have.

I once initiated a night battle vs the AI's one small defending army backed-up by two more reinforcing armies (one very large and one small). In the pre-battle window I was notified that reinforcements will not be available during the battle. However, AI reinforcements arrived after all; I was not paying attention to numbers so I do not know if all or some of the reinforcements arrived, but I can confirm that the reinforcement mechanic for night battles seems bugged.

yep, this happened to me aswell. It was a sea battle i was expecting 6 units in reinforcement. Only the general came.

Of the 30 units was 20 of them made up by the reinforcing army?

[G.Assassin]

Woopedazz yes my attacking army was a fleet of about 10 units, the reinforcements were a 20 unit army on transport ships.

I once had my reinforcements stuck just outside the red line on a beach. They seemingly spawned pressed against the ocean by the outline and couldnt get out of it. I was wondering where all my troops were because they were vital to win the battle, but no new unit cards would show up. Then I moved my camera to the little marker on the minimap that shows the direction of reinforcements and noticed the whole army squashed together, shuffling and trying to walk, but unable to enter the battlefield.

Had AI missing reinforcements many times - attack 3 weak sauce stacks, half of the enemy don't show up.
