    Also, is there any way to fix the load game/forgetful Ai bug? Where the AI ends its sieges when you load a game? It seems like something that wouldn't be TOO hard to fix (maybe just a failure to save an "intention" variable or something into a save game, I don't know much about how RTW works). I'm sticking with 1.1 until someone creates a mod to fix this issue, because otherwise it wouldn't be worth it patching to 1.2. Obviously I still have the save/load problem in 1.1, but I would assume any mod fixing this issue would require 1.2 to work, and 1.2 still has other bugs I'd like to avoid.

    CA issued a statement saying that this is not a bug, but the ai re-assesses its deployment of armies and thinks that they could be used elsewhere. They also said it doesn't happen 100% of the time, and that's the case imo.

    i have a suspicion it might be tougher to fix...

    the ludus magna thread, investigating the issue most in depth, is here: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=45860

    the "not happen 100% of the time" is a half-truth. it has been established from very early on that the bug will not affect sieges where the AI intends to starve the city out for x number of turns (x being the number of turns a settlement can hold out, depending on the tech level of walls built). other than that, however, the ludus magna thread (above) should show quite conclusively that in all other cases, it IS INDEED 100%

    rowan11088 - there is little reason to stay with 1.1. the loadgame bug can't be modded out, but the majority of bugs introduced with 1.2 can be, or at least lessened greatly. the fixes far outweigh any new bugs.

    If you hibernate your computer instead of saving the game you will avoid this AI siege problem.

    Yeah I thinks you should get the 1.2 patch too; however, some patch like the unlimited cheat won't work.

    BTW I have uninstall my vanilla with 1.2 and now I can't get it to install again any advices on how to edit the registry?
