Playing Parthia. Allied with Phocas who's at war with Armenia. I'm not at war with Armenia. I've just moved a stack next to Armenias last remaining city without declaring war. Turns out that the Phocans have been beseiging it. Armenians sally forth.

I am forced to take part in the battle alongside the Armenians!! Eh???

In the battle I opt to simply withdraw my forces.

The battle ends up going badly for the Phocans who despite outnumbering the Armenians, killing their general and 75% of the Armenian army sustaining b'all losses decide to route en masse. I thought that was a good thing, I can attack the city myself with the defenders seriously weakened.

But no. RTW has the last laugh. It has decided that my army along with its two leading generals for some reason have died! They didn't cross swords with anyone and retreated from the field with no losses

In additon to this I've found a serious flaw playing using only the Autosave to restore from no restore pre RTW's decision to screw me over. I've been robbed. FFS this must be fixed as soon as possible.
