This happened to Agartha (atul) fighting Jotunheim in Velusion's Perpetuality some time ago, too. I guess that Velusion keeps backups of his savegames that he could provide.
Hm, don't know whether Velusion keeps a big backlog of his games, but I think I encountered aforementioned bug (or its variation) twice during last few turns.

Here how it has went, I hope it doesn't get too complicated. Provinces are A, B and C, all neighbours and C with a fortress (C as in castle).

Try one, my armies are in A and B, Jotun's in C. I command attack from both A and B to C, Jotun attacks A from C with a single scout and has set the rest of his armies in C to patrol. End result: Army in A moves to C, scout from C to A (they miss each other), army in B mysteriously stays in B bar the scouts who've had a 'sneak' command instead of 'move'. End result, lots of grumbling from me for losing a third of my attack force due army in B not moving.

Act two several turns later, my army's sieging in C, Jotun's big guys are in B. I command an attack from C to B and a single commander to storm the castle, I assume Jot moves from B to C. End result: neither of the armies move, only commander tries to storm the castle, my scouts set to 'sneak' instead of 'move' have snuck to B.

Act three next turn, instead of moving I set my army to storm, Jot moves from B to C. Battles are resolved as they ought to be, so the connection from B to C isn't to blame.

I hope I got that right.

All in all, I think that there's some weird problem when doing pincer maneuveres and the opponent tries to do something to it.
