this happened to you before? my first time today

[bovi]

Hey guys, I bet if we all jump off some of us will get soft landings! You go first!

Anyway, I've had it happen before. Usually it's individuals that panic while fighting on the walls, but I've also seen it like here without provocation. I think it's a pathfinding bug when the walls are knocked down.

[Aemilius Paulus]

Yeah, it has happened to me as well, quite a bit of times actually, but I never had more than 5 men die during a single battle from this pathfinding bug. This always happens during wall battles and it has happened to my men even when they were just moving. Every time this has happened to my units while they were not fighting was when there were two much men on the same stretch of a wall. Jams happened and the next thing you know, people are falling. The Arabian slingers aren't jam-packed though. Odd.

It could be connected to the undermined portion of a wall right by those slingers. I remember sapping a wall, killing a bunch of AS phalangites who happened to be standing right in the same place the undermining was done, and then a two minutes later, a couple of them fell from the wall for seemingly no reason. They weren't moving either.

mmh I once lost a batle of syracusea with the juliai against the scipiai(damn I dont even know anymore how to spell those factions) by having all my legionarys fall between the wall and my siege tower (worst moment ever!)
I suffered such a trauma I didn't used siege towers for over 2 years

Not being able to spell them is a good thing, as you've gotten off vanilla completely it seems Anyway, I'll play the geek and say it anyway: It's Julii and Scipii

I've had that happen many times. It is definately tied to the damage to the wall. You just have to never move units on a wall that are near a whole, even if they are unharmed by the making of it.

Is "Scipii" even accurate? Grammatically it doesn't seem right to me.

[Wausser]

Scipio was only a cognomen from the gens Cornelia. and the Brutii are also incorrect, it was also a cognomen from the Iunia. The Julii are the only (playable) faction wich is correct

"We will land safely, inshallah"?

actually, In shā'a allāhu is one of many possibilities for the ancient arab: try in shā'at illātu, or inshā'at il3uzza, or in shā'at mināt, or in shā'a qais, and so one and so forth. since they are commiting suicide, and they are with carthage, (and probaly hence from western arabia try in shā'a dhū sharā

I am visiting persepolis and some cities in india. Just to sack them and leave. (becouse I cant keep them becouse of the public order). But this city I left my army to sail home with my genreal. They are just mercendaries. My genreal has been all over the world. Now I am planning to send him to scandinavia and britannia.
