Yuezhi reinforcements

[option]

Playing a battle with Saka the other day, I end up getting some AI reinforcements, but to my surprise they had the big green Yuezhi banners on them. I'm not sure if this was due to where I was fighting (the old Yuezhi starting province) or if this is something that happens all the time, but I just thought I'd put it up here.

Wow, AI reinforcement? How is that possible?

It's certainly not something that happens all the time, I've never heard of it before. Which units are these?

[option]

The first time it happened, I had two Saka horse archers, one Saka FM, and one Saka early nobles appear with Yuezhi banners to assist me in a battle with Baktria in Xiyu. It's happened a few times since (every time I've ended up with reinforcements controlled by the AI). I'll post a screenshot the next time it happens.

You're saying these are your forces, controlled by the AI, or that it's a random unit supporting you which can't be seen on the map?

[option]

My forces, adjacent to the battle on the campaign map.

Thanks, I'll test this myself when I get home.

AFAIK this only happens after the battle is over. By the way, Saba's reinforcements sport purple "Senate" banners.
