Default Routed defending forces but... battle report indicates loss



Perhaps a silly question. Attacked Abyssian PD with a Gygja and foul spawn. Battle screen shows "The Armies of Abysia are routed" after a close fight. However the battle report indicates I lost as does the possession of the province. Thoughts? No turn limit hit on the shown sequence though the Gygja was at 160ish fatigue. Does the mage need to recover to <100 fatigue inside the limit to actually win the province?

Sounds like a case of the visual battle showing the wrong sequence of events, which has been known to happen.

In short, the actual battle, behind the scenes, was a loss for you, but the game is showing you the wrong outcome when you watch it.

Is it a game on llamaserver, and using CBM 1.41?

You may need to download the latest version of 1.41 if so. It was updated at some point on the server, and can lead to discrepancies like this in the battle reports.

Yes it is a 1.41 CBM game on Llamaserver (Use_of_weapons). So my client needs to be updated? What version would I use?

Try the version from the first post in this thread (http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=42022)

I had the same issue in one game, and replacing it with this version gave me the correct battle results.

Same with me. I was always wondering why the heck I was somehow losing mages in fights and helhird armies getting beaten by Carrion Lord thugs until I updated it.
