Yeah, my hand didn't require surgery so I was able to submit my turn in time. TheDemon's request is about the next turn, I believe.

But, Sept, you're the only one not to submit!

Hah! Well met indeed C'tis. You have proven yourself a worthy adversary. But we shall meet again.

I must say, this raiding lark is an absolute jaunt when the sparrow is on the other foot.

No, I'm not sure why I used sparrow either.

Also, I looted the body.

I heard that your victory was only due to the movement bug darloth, no?

Yes, that was supposed to be three Jarls hitting your cap darloth, not one. But due to the movement bug, two Jarls just sat there and picked their noses.

Nice turn anyway though, to you and all the noobs. You have kicked Big N in the crotch, and bloodied his nose when he bent over. But, you guys know you are only making me mad, right?

around 0.1-1.0% of the time a movement order simply doesn't occur generally if the same movement issue is not changed the order will NEVER occur (but giving a different order of some sort clears the bug)


the bug only ever happened to me once ever in a multiplayer game so i don't know as much about it as others

Was it? Well, I'll keep my eye on the turn submission for the current turn as well.

PS: I don't want to scare anyone off from the game with the movement bug. It does happen, very, very rarely. It just happened to me at a bad time.

That said, everyone should be aware that it occasionally happens that your units do not move as ordered. Probably less than 1% of the time, as Namad said.

You could put this into game terms as, the runner with the orders got killed by a snake, or something, so the orders never got to the commanders.

Interesting... I thought I was seeing that happen in my first MP game, but it was on an oversized map for the number of people and we were slinging so many armies around I always figured I must have inadvertently cancelled the move. Thanks for the explanation.
