Default Blood slaves in combat bug?

I've now had two battles in my current MP game that have resulted in my blood slaves being converted into normal units. Is this a known bug? (I'm not seeing it in the main bug thread) It's very annoying to lose a whole turn's income to a random one-commander-retreating-immediately attack...

blood slaves always show up as units in battle. (this is not a bug, they are not gems, they are virgins, after all.)

To be clear, after the battle, I now have no blood slaves in the mages' gem stocks (although none were spent), and some blood slave units in the garrison or under the command of the mages.

If it's a feature, not a bug, then maybe it's because they were defiled in the course of the battle, and are no longer pure enough to be used for magical purposes. You should just disband them .

That seems to be a bug a few people have had. If it isn't already in the bug discussion thread someone should bring it up using the guidelines Edi posted (I have to go to work).

Hmmm. Did the blood mages flee or die? I wonder how that gets handled...

On a side note, they're not yet fireproof, are they? I haven't played Abysia for a while, but I recall being annoyed by their temperature sensitivity... wouldn't mind seeing a

#bloodslave <unr|unit name>

command within nation modding for nation-specific blood slaves.
