Also....Abyssa just entered my home province. My armies weren't there for the initial battle....just the PDs. However, they ARE there in the besieged castle. Is this how they are supposed to act? If they woulda stayed and fought on the battlefield I would have dispatched the enemy army with ease...I think.

Now then....I DID move them into the province the same turn, so maybe they are assumed to have moved in after the field battle occured and found their way into the castle thru secret passages?

Unfortunately, this is how the game was designed. If there's a castle your choices are "Defend castle" and "patrol". There's no "defend province". A big oversight as far as I'm concerned.
