Random move armies and casting sequence

[Herode]

Both armies move simultaneously. Your army in A attacks X. The enemy from Y attacks A, after your army has left.

That's not the case in my present game at least. Here, Y attacks A and pins it, thus A does not attack X. At least when I am Abysia and tha AI plays (actually) Jotunheim or Mictlan. One exception occured nevertheless when I tried to assassinate an ennemy commander (but not the unique commander) in Y. But it can be just a coincidence.

Maybe there's a bonus for AI as Jim suggests ?
