Yeah, it gave errors indeed, and when I removed the "fresh water" flag, it worked after that.

*Edit* Now I flagged them as "fresh water" and it is working now. I have no idea that why it wasn't working before, since I haven't changed anything else.

Okay, now we have figured out that what is the problem. If you would like to play on my Clash of the Titans map for example against 3 random AIs, the game will crash with the following error message "can't find valid starting province", if one of the random AIs is a water nation, since there isn't sea provinces on that map. The game recognizes that there isn't sea provinces, however it is still trying to add water based nations for the AI players.
There won't be a problem in MP games on maps without sea provinces, since the players won't pick a water based nation anyways.

Happened to me twice in 1 game: I watched a battle replay from a citadel assault, the citadel had a very strange graphics: some disconnected walls and grates. Defenders started in the open.
See attached picture for details.

I suggest a *new* bug thread be opened, now the thread is ridden with discussions/debates.
It'll even be better if someone could step up and maintain a running list of bugs...
Just an idea, don'take it harshly

[img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Bug.gif[/img] Recruitment queue bug when undefended fortress is conquered

I conquered a fortress (undefended) where the AI had an uncleared recruitment queue, and the queue was still one for units I could not get (Arcoscephale national units, which was the AI nation, not mine). The queue was greyed out, and when I cleared it, I got Arco's money back...

I don't know if this has been reported before, i can't really read back all 25 pages. Just slap me if it's old (if it's not system-specific i suppose it is old).

[img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Bug.gif[/img] Commander list does not scroll

I was playing Ermor, and when i wanted to select my pretender to cast i ritual spell i noticed that he was no longer displayed. The list only showed 24 (i think) commanders without the option to scroll down to see the others. Since i tend to just leave all researches in my capital in SP ermor there were a LOT more. I had to give them orders via the nation overview.

1) There is an option to resize the commander icons. Check the hotkey help page.

2) There are scroll arrows on the right of the list, on the outside .. hover over them with the mouse and they'll turn red.


.. better search the forum next time, will save us all some time. Thanks.

Ah thanks for the info. I tried searching, but probably didn't come up with the correct search terms.

Not so much a bug as a question but imo still in the right place:

Is there a reason the manual contains national summoning rituals and national non-ritual spells but not national non-summoning rituals? Maybe include that in the next edition if there is going to be one.
