right, the year is 1259, the game is expert, the sicilian fleet is second only to the Scottish fleet (the scottish looking surprisingly like the hungarians with the exact same flags, only starting provinces any different), The King of Scotland... me, decides that the sicilian fleet needs to be destroyed... so he orders every fleet(well most) in the med to attack someone... except where they are needed most - the adriatic.

So anyway next turn i get told they have discovered gunpowder - great i think!, but then i see that the sicilians have about 5 ships left in the adriatic because i overlooked it ... now im not one to quickload over such a small thing, but this felt like a situation where it should have been... (cant stand overlooking the enemy in naval battles),

So i quickload, alter it so that my fleets in the adriatic are destroying the sicilians... excellent, sicilian fleet falls...

no gunpoweder discovery...

it is now 1305, the Scottish Highlanders own everything from the Highlands of Scotland to the shores of constantinople, the Golden Horde has 3 provinces...

I still dont have gunpowder...

Now, is this a bug of some kind? or have i missed something... what do you think?

p.s - i do not in any way endorse save/loading, as it is a form of cheating, however i am a very proud admiral...
