    Default annoying new bug

    playing campaign and had some rebels in jerusalem so I sent a stack to take care of them, they end up spawning on the peak of a mountain, there are no access ways for my troops to reach them or for them to reach me, I spent over an hour trying to reach them. Archers took out most of them but very annoying to have to accept defeat on something I should have won.

    Sometimes the initial setup gets bugged and 1 unit ends up in a position that is unreachable. I've had that happened, but rarely, and it is very frustrating. I never had that happen in RTW and BI.

    What if you were to autocalc that battle?

    You don't know the deployment until after the battle starts. The only thing you might be able to do is autosave prior to the battle, then if it happens, go back load the autosave then autocalc the battle. To me that is an awful lot of work to do to work around a problem, but it is a workaroud.

    Of course, that's what I implied. Not really a solution, just curious to see if the autocalc looks at the terrain at all, rather than unit stats.

    I'd hate to autocalc a battle between full stacks, but against a small rebel force? No problem.

    I wish I would have. I would have won the battle no contest.
