    Default AW: Suicid Wall Jumper

    yeah, probably the fear of melee with toxotai...

    mhh, good to see that it happens sometimes, probably a bug with extreme wall defence stats or something like that (i doesn´t look at the enemy general).

    never had much problems with it myself, but I often noticed that as soon as my defending enemies' unit rout, they just run straight over the edge.

    It makes sense, being the quickest way to get to the plaza. :P

    Right, in case u survive the fall u can crawl towards the plaza while dragging your broken legs with u, definitley the shortest way, but not the most time efficient one I guess.

    LMAO!!!!! Hilarious...

    But in all seriousness, I noticed this bug once with the AI. As soon as they jumped off their siege towers onto the wall, a lot of them missed, fell, and died. A battle that I should've completely lost turned into a heroic victory...

    Actually i think theres evidence of this happening at the seige of Suguntum by Carthage, just by the attackers not seeing through the dust and running right off the edge. I cba to find it now lol, its too late.

    But this often happens to me (i say often, i mean it has hapened a few times) when my men just disappear off the wall. Usually happens to the Large Stone Walls, in the extra wall support bits, men just jump off and fall through the wall, if that makes any sense

    Suicide jumping from the wall seems to be a pathfinding error. It happened to me recently:


    I my case, it seems that the broken wall lead to a broken set of pathfinding waypoints.

    figures most of my jumpers were spartans fighting some missile troop.
