Starving???
In the Priori game, I have an underwater castle (I am R'lyeh) that was sieged last turn by Oceania. They left this turn to take another province, but the in-game report says I am still under siege, and starving.
The fort is not under siege anymore. In fact, I rebuilt PD, and bought a commander. But when I click on my troops in there, they have the starving icon. I show over 400 supplies in there now, with only 39 supply usage.
Why are they still starving? Hell, there is a full banquet table set up for anyone that wants to eat.

I don't have my manual handy, but most likely starvation is checked before movement.

You are probably right, QM.

Re: Starving???
That can't be it. Movement is steps 12-13; starvation is step 22.

Re: Starving???
Indeed that can't be the case or one would always starve for 2 turns. Plus you would not starve the turn someone moves in and deprives you of supplies which I know one does.
Sadly I can only tell you that it isn't that and not what it is!

Re: Starving???
When the attacking force leaves the fort (without you taking the castle back by force) it's still reported as sieged even if there is no one there. It's easy to reproduce. It works as if the attacker was sieging with 0 units until the turn is over.
You also get a message from the attacking side that you don't breach the wall anymore.
I don't know if that's intended or not, though.
