    Disappearing Generals and troops

    I have had this happen on two seperate occasions. The first time I had a 4 star general with 17 units in a castle. I selected the general and 16 units to attack a small army in the next province. However when the pre-battle screen came up the general and 4 of the 16 units simply evaporated. The first time this happened, I did not spot it and since I had the enemy quite out-numbered anyway, I still won. However after the battle, I could not figure out where my best general had disappeared to.

    Fortunately, I saved right before the battle, so I reloaded and was able to repeat what happened. Whether I fought the battle or auto-resolved it, the general and the other 4 units would simply disappear forever. I was able to wait a turn and then attack--thus avoiding the problem.

    I have had it happen a 2nd time with a different general, but even though I saved, it did not repeat on the re-load.

    Artillery adds dignity to what would otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    I get a CTD when I click on the manually resolve button in a battle start menu during my single player campaign.
    It does not happen always, but it seems that if I have played a battle manually earlier in a "session" then the second battle will cause this 90% of the time.
    So, for me, I have to always save before a battle and then CTD - reload before I can play those battles.

    Very annoying, but the game is otherwise so good that I still play it. I would play for longer sessions probably if it worked.

    Second bug I saw (or buggish behaviour) was during an ambush. I started surrounding the AI in the battle. The AI basically had a "train" of troops and he kept moving straight forward, even as I had troops on his both flanks and was closing in. I kept firing arrows and surrounding him and the response was to leave his archers to fire back and keep moving with the melee troops. I decimate the archers and then it is an easy win to fight the melee troops later on.

    I suppose it could be a problem with priorities of which side to attack first? My troops were on both sides, with roughly equal amount of men. Only some were hidden in a forest, and even they came out quite fast.
    Total war games played so far:
    STW, MTW, MTW:VI, RTW, MTW2, ETW, STW2

    New one: Two units/agents on the campaign map can become stuck together if one spawns on top of another. This happened to me with a rebel army spawning on top of a monk and a different rebel army spawning on top of another army. Someone on TWC saw one of his ninjas get stuck with a newly discovered rival ninja. When stuck like this, neither unit can be interacted with.

    "Stuck" as in "can't select"? Or can you select it but it won't respond? If the former, have you tried selecting from the "Agents" list under the mini-map?

    The agent can be selected as normal and viewed, but can't be ordered (there is no movement range shown either). The army can't be attacked (mouse pointer doesn't even turn into the sword as usual).
