AI splits units defending a "castle" assault (VI)

[DEB8]

If the number of units was more than 16, some were outside the battlefield and came in as reinforcements.

That's a given and not what I am refering to... The "outside" units are outside the "castle" but on the map ( battlefield ), and are usually out of sight ( initially ), hence the Woods example. To date, they have not remained hidden and they usually attempt to aid the troops inside the "castle" !

That is speaking of me defending the castle. I don't remember any other details,

Fair enough.

If an enemy is hiding somewhere the battle isn't over, right?

Correct.

So if someone is, you will have to wait wondering why your battle isn't over. I can't remember such situations. I took the castle and that's it. No waiting and wondering.

Noted - see previous replies though.

My game has a VI add-on, so I must assume it refers to battles in either mode. Yet I don't play VI very often, still less I play siege battles in it, so can't remember any cases referring to VI proper. Moreover, I never paid attention to such things. But soon I'm going to play Scots (if I pluck up enough courage) and I will take notice of it.

OK - Thanks...
