I am willing to send the turn file to a neutral 3rd party in addition to whatever files I need to send in order for the player to view the turn. I am guessing the map graphic and file correct?

I'll review it. I already have the map, but am not in the game anymore.

What am I looking for? Fire Commanders order?

I started a new SP and tried several times to react the situation by giving the archers fire largest order and couldn't get them to shoot the commander. I also never had such a situation in my dom3 playing, which I admit is not long.

I have also saved the turn file, because I wanted someone to review it at some point. But I guess if people who played with Foodstamp before find him a fair player, that is not necessary. I'll accept it as a quirk of the game engine.

If someone wants to review it after all, just out of curiosity, I can send the turn as well.

And yes, astral window was mine.

Ok. That was some unusual targeting. I would not have thought the size 3 Yaksha would have gotten that much attention. But he was out on the flank by himself, and certainly could have drawn the attention of a group of archers, without using "fire commanders". I noticed that no other rear commanders were fired at. I think the Yaksha just stood out too much.

I see no evidence of cheating. In fact, if this was my battle, I would not even have noticed any discrepency. Merely a bit of bad luck.

Is this even technically possible?

It's possible to copy Bogus-squad scripts to another commander, but isn't it impossible to copy commander scripts to troops? Even if you Enslave Mind instead of Charming, and get the Bogus squad as troops, they will not have any script anymore that can be copied.

Mr Bogus and his followers are looting my lands now, in province 142.

"Unusual targeting" is not all that unusual in DomIII.

As I understand it, two missed turns means getting set AI?
Fomoria and Oceania?

Formoria at least is interested in continuing the game; it sounds like the stales were just technical difficulties. I'm not sure if Oceania wants to continue or not.
