Default Re: No bodyguards during assassination and remove from queue?

You mean something like (as in Civ games),

Pass - Press say Ctrl-Space (Ctrl to prevent accidental space bar pressing...?) to skip this unit for this turn only, it's set to do whatever it is currently set to do. Just flag it (internally) so it won't be cycled through by the 'n' key this turn.

Hold - Equivalent to Defend, except require manual/divine intervention to un-hold it.

These would indeed be useful features. But to make it more complete, we also need a key to cycle through units with Hold order (Ctrl-h?), or at least units with Hold order should be highlighted somehow in the overview, least we quickly forget about their existence.

Just some random musings.

For 1), what kind of assassin was it? And was it really a random assassin? I've never seen that - only intentional assassins ordered by foes.

In general, the bodyguards should appear.

1. No, this is a bug. It has happened to me as well. There is a random event: "An assassin attempted to assasinate one of your commanders", and the bug is: any bodyguards assigned to that commander are not present during the assassination.

Tinkthank has it correct, the assassin had no national affiliation, and in viewing the battle it said independents attacking man.

I put the save folder into a .rar in case it should be sent somewhere if someone wants to see it.
