BUG - ITEM - Armor of Virtue

TAG: Item, Important, *Behaviour?

Description:
The Armor of Virtue no longer casts Ritual of Returning at the beginning of combat. It now casts the spell at the end of first turn, meaning that if you got struck heavily on the first turn the armor cannot save you from your ghastly fate.
In additional to that, if your commander is ATTACKING at the first turn - that is, any action that involved a unit movement - the Ritual of Returning spell will never be casted.

Reproduce the bug:

Forge the Armor of Virtue.
Equip it to a commander.
Script commander to "Attack".
Use that commander to attack some province. View him in the combat; Note that he will NEVER gains the blue icon of Ritual of Returning.

Additional Info:

In the logfile you could still seeing the following lines:

item Armor of Virtue casting autospell cast returning (cr0)
Autospell is cast returning
castspell: cnr148 spl54 (cast returning) vis0 x14 y14 spldmg8388608

But this spell will fail to take effect. Could be caused by the reason that the item tried to cast the spell at "original" place which that commander no longer stands at.

Solution:

Make the Armor casts that spell at the beginning of combat.

Related possible bugs:
I DID NOT tested, but the same thing could applies to other item spells like the charge body armor.
