I noticed the same thing while playing the demo. Kinda annoying.

Did anyone experience this in full game or does this happen only in demo?

I've got the full game.
It was in the tutorial. It happened a few times there.
I'm playing Agartha now and haven't seen it. It might be linked to Marveni, or to the tuturial, or just to tactics I was using there.

I'm also using Linux. Not likely to be a factor, but ...

Only time I've seen it is when troops have routed.

Range question for archers/slingers.

I use the troop disposition square to put my javelin hurlers in the back, others in front. It seems like the Bandar I'm playing against have a HUGE firing range from even farther back ... so is there a range value somewhere in the stats?

I notice later in the battle, both sides tend to fire on their own troops a little bit, but some are more accurate than others. Is there an accuracy value somewhere as well?

Note I don't have the manual (my game is either en-route or hasn't shipped yet), so sorry if this is explained there...

I can't wait for it to get here, I think I don't understand many things (magic, for one), just from the tutorial

Strenght affects the range of some ranged weapons. Javelins and Sticks and Stones are such IIRC, Boulders also. Lightning too.

Range is a property of the (ranged) weapon your troop wields, click on the name of the weapon on the bottom of the unit's description window.
"Accuracy" is a property of both the unit and the (ranged) weapon, a unit has a Precision score, and each (ranged) weapon has a Precision score as well, the effective Precision of a certain unit with that certain weapon is the sum of those precision scores IIRC.

Precision is the accuracy stat.

Range is listed on the weapon itself. Click on it, stats should come up.
