Mmm, if I recall well, the PLATO army got over a barrier in that particular
area (maybe it was a secret passage). PLATO also used this bug to ship 1000
men in one ship to the next province to reduce risk. Also we saw the bug
used when our army got killed although again it can be a secret passage or
some other feature.
But I have my doubts about these coincidences :-)

This does not yet explain why he published the bug towards Rimmon players
instead of keeping it to himself when reported.

I am for now very dissapointed in the support others and I are getting,
there have been more bugs reported last week. In a battle with PLATO I
noticed in the battle detailed report crossbowmen counted as 1 in offense
instead of the 6 it should have.

Some of our players are getting stops where they didn't issue one.

Ressurection counts in castles or maybe other sites.
