Mine was on Orania, Version 2.06, only the Caelum cold fix mod.

As for BVC, does that work even though the unit in question was dead (if not on turn one, then fairly early on)? I.e. how does it explain the fluctuating XP of a dead unit?

The only time I've seen this is on your Poke In The Eye map, Gandalf. One independant guy started with 25000-some experience. (Of course, I also started out with a castle of type "x" in my home province, as well as a Triton Lord with a slave collar and fire sceptre... the home province being on land. But then, that's Poke In The Eye.

For example: I've had a Slayer kill of 20 or more commanders and he'll be in the HoF, but on one turn he will be listed with 1 kill (1?), the next turn with 15, the turn thereafter with something different. Maybe it doesnt matter, but just thought I'd mention it.

Assassins may kill by poison. These kills doesn't count in the hall of fame.

No, only Illwinter maps or Karan or Europe.
And I don't think it was poison (most of my slayers usually kill with summons), since I would get highly fluctuating values, something like:
Turn X: 2 kills
Turn X +1: 21 kills
Turn X + 2: 1 kill
Turn X + 3: 23 kills

Then the summons get the kill, not the commander. Kills are only PERSONAL kills.

I'm sure you are right, but I have seen my commanders jump into the hall of fame and skyrocket with kills simply by equipping "Nethgul". So there may be a difference between the way it should be and the way it is.

Nethgul is an item that casts spells, like a spirit helmet, not a summoned unit.
