Related to the mod bug, too many mods modifying too many magics enabled, wipes out all magic. Fixed in v3.18, so it's not an issue after the next patch.

Bandar Log possible bugs:

Brahmin and Yogi both have a morale of 7, while even the non-sacred lower caste Vanara chief has a morale of 12.

And this is not a bug per se, but animal tag should only be given to non-intelligent, or semi-intelligent beings, how does a rishi, who masters astral magic more than most so called human "mages", still be an animal? Bandar Log units all have animal tag, which makes them very difficult in sieging. At least all vanara, bandars and esp. the white ones should not be animal. They lived in a fortified city after all.

Quite possible. I forgot to mention that he also got a different name in the process - "Mistaril".

The shortlist color coding has been updated for better visibility on the new forum color scheme.

Edi, could you please take a look at this as it is an obvious bug.

Bug Report :

One of my mages casted Haruspex on a province that I don't own.
NB 1 : this province was previously mine but it became indie controlled after a random event 2-3 turns ago.
NB2 : the ritual is "monthly casted"

I've added this into the GUI section. I've also included the problem with battlefield tearing in the same entry. It should be noted that these bugs were introduced in patch 3.10, as before that I had never encountered battlefield tearing and your description of map tearing fits the same symptoms.

I'd like to see this tested and reproduced if possible. It's hard to track down otherwise.

I can send the .trn file if you wish. Just give me the address.
The game is "Victoria" (LA MP game, random map but I remember it has been saved and published here somewhere...)

Send it to the Illwinter info address (info at illwinter dot com) along with the map as well. Include an explanation of the issue. Johan has the kind of tools needed to dig out the reason this happened. I can't do anything about it and don't know where to start. I have a couple of guesses but more probably than not they are totally off.

This is probably a known issue.

The event where you lost control of the province probably occurred the same turn the mage selected that province as a target. It's a function of the order the turns are processed in.

1)Mage casts monthly ritual, then chooses target for next month.
2)Random events determined
3)Battles due to random events resolved.

He picked the province in 1, then it changed hands in step 3. Then the next turn you saw the results of the search, but the province was already in Indy hands.
Unless you're sure it was selected after it was lost, I'd be surprised if this was something else.
