Bizarre ocurrance

[rb9o]

In a rare freak event, I managed to capture the English faction leader after having killed all other English generals. I offered to ransom him, and the English accepted, netting me a hefty sum that justified allowing the war to continue a few more turns, at most. Strangely enough, the faction was destroyed anyway. I don't know why. Is it perhaps because he was on Britain, and his nearest settlement was in Normandy, thereby leaving him nowhere to retreat? Can't the AI just teleport home when ransomed? I've never noticed.

The faction destruction script propably fired right after the battle, before the king was returned to his nation.

[Deteriorate]

The ransomed troops will retreat by land or load into nearby ships but can not teleport

How could I not click on a thread with the word "bizarre" in the title?

And occurrence is misspelled, too! Double bonus!
