Xanthippos bug

Interesting. Too bad the "ebst scripter" just got to sleep.

Well thanks for your help and we will try to solve it as quick as possible.

No problem. Considering the massive amounts of changes that were made, I have seen very few bugs, so you guys did a great job.

A few more notes about Xanthippos in my game; I have engaged him twice before in Sicily, and in both previous battles he did have a Spartan bodyguard. He won the first battle, with most of the Spartans being killed. The next battle, he had a much smaller force and his unit actually routed without ever engaging anyone. The rest of his army stayed, fought, and died, and I won the battle. (One of my "Client Rulers" was in this battle too, and another Carthaginian family member was killed in that battle). I'm just trying to give as much info as possible about the circumstances surrounding this "Xanthippos clone".

And again thanks for the info. I know it would be of great help to get rid of this bug.

I'm actually still awake Ed, I haven't finished what I need to do yet tonight.

mighty rome, please upload your savegame.

In the meantime, a little info:

How old are they?
What year is it?
Can you find these guys in your family tree?

This is truly weird. "The" Xanthippos has a bodyguard of Spartiatai Hoplitai. But Xanthippos is a legal Qarth name, so we can have others popping up randomly. They would have the normal Qarth. bodyguard. But two at a time?

I can't upload files to the forum, maybe I am too new. (I knew I should have joined a long time ago.. I've been playing EB for years :)

Anyway, here's a link to the savegame, I uploaded it to some random site I found that lets you upload files:

The two Xanthippos's are near Lilibeo. They're 45 years old, and it is spring, 251BC. He is most certainly not in my family tree. (I am playing as Romani :)

I've got it.

OK, very dumb question.

Well it wasn't necessarily a dumb question, even though my name is "mighty_rome" I do play as many other factions too, including Carthage. I like them all, really.

I hope the savegame will help you find out what's going on with the Xanthippos clones.. I certainly don't want to have to face him again, I've already killed him twice now :)
