Yes. Just start the game from the command line or a shortcut with -ddd and play the battle out.

If you have retreat as third order your priest might start retreating earlier if he cant cast any spells (due to range etc). If unable to follow one order he switches to the next one. If that is also impossible to perform he will go for the third order (retreat).

Default global enchantment icon

Global enchantment Icon appears randomly on one of my PD. I have only noticed this with Ulm but could be going on with other nations.

Here is a pic. attaching turn file and map.

That looks an awful lot like a curse. A different icon would probably be helpful.

Default Re: global enchantment icon

What happens if you mouse-over it? Does it say "Global Enchantment"? Or "Cursed"? Maybe the green grass somehow made your brown curse icon look green? Looks weird though.

Default Re: global enchantment icon

Is that in late game in a large game?

There is a bug with persistent global spells that stay in effect even though the nation that cast them has been defeated. In such cases, the global is of necessity tied to the unique ID of the caster and if the caster is dead, the number may have been temporarily assigned to one of the PD units.

In regards to the icon. It does say "global enchantment" and not curse. It is a PD unit, I think and starts the battle with it, so no way it could have been cursed.

Edi: It is fairly large late game. I think you may have it. Started with all MA nations on a map and now down to 5.

Its certainly not a game breaking bug, just kind of strange.
