My garrison abandoned me?

[Dyabedes of Aphrodisias]

I'm playing an awesome campaign as Qarthadast, and the city on Corsica was besieged by the Romani. They waited 2 turns, then just...walked in. The two units garrisoning the town just kind of dissappeared, I would say.

What happened there? Why and how would my garrison just cease to exist?

I hope they like that little island, because it cost them a complete raping of Roma and Capua...

[The Celtic Viking]

If that town could only hold out for two turns, and they don't assault and you don't sally, you lose your city without a fight. Just like the AI does.

[pezhetairoi]

There is NO town that can hold out for 2 turns. Even the smallest unwalled town can hold out for 3. Something funny here...

[hoom]

Maybe they were bribed?

[Pharnakes]

But you can't bribe ot talk to a town under siege.

[pezhetairoi]

Curioser and curioser... Perhaps they lifted the siege, then bribed it. Sometimes if it happens fast enough you don't see it happening till it's happened.

[Kralizec]

Odd. Never seen that.

The weirdest thing I've ever seen in an EB campaign was an AI garrison sally twice in a turn

(and I don't mean as reinforcements for an another army)

[Conradus]

Is it so weird to sally twice? If seen them do it four, five times a turn.
