Major Bug

I have attached a saved game for your own evaluation of the problem (rename the file from .txt to .2h).

Here's the situation:

I'm battling Ermor in single player, it's been pretty bloody. We reached a situation where while sieging one of his castles, he systematically took all the land around it. I finally took the castle and summoned in a bunch of fall bears with 5 dwarven smiths (I'm Vanheim). He then seiges my castle. I have my forces break the seige which is where the problem begins.

The battle plays out, where it initially states I lose and my fleeing leaders all die since they can't flee to friendly territory. HOWEVER I rewatch the battle, but no one fled, and in fact, I defeated his army without much trouble at all.

This is a huge loss to me due to a bug and I hope this gets looked into. I read that this happens on occasion from multiplayer, but has anyone else had this happen to them single player? I am using EDM 1.1 and CBM 1.6 mods.

New development. So I went ahead and continued the game. I am seiging Ermor's capital, and despite having a much larger force, I am unable to break down the walls. BUT, for some reason, I can raise the taxes of the province and collect income from it. Very odd.

That is normal. The lands around the castle are yours. Same with the people who inhabit it. Putting tax at 200% is nice way of raising unrest.

maybe you pressed some buttons while watchin the battle?

there are some test functions that kill or create units

This does happen in SP. It's annoying and no one's given a good explanation.

However, it's not a bug that you lost the battle. What happened when the battle ran during hosting is what happened. The bug is that the replay is different, so you can't see what happens.

Send the files to Illwinter, as per the instructions in the stickied bug shortlist thread. If Johan can reproduce it, good. Otherwise we're out of luck.
