I've killed a couple of barb units on defense but those were open field battles not defending a city.


WAG: the bug has something to do with how the code is handling barb attacks on cities.

Hrm, I had a withdraw happen on a barb unit attacking my city too.

There was a pretty interesting theory in thread that this could be a weird interaction with First Strike mechanics.

I had a barb archer bounce off an injured scout, so that would track. M

It was a barb spear bouncing off of my archer, so first strikes were in the mix there too.

My unit that killed a barb on defense had first strikes.

Charriu posted in Pindicator's thread that he will investigate the bug and possible first strike cause, so hopefully we can have a patch at some point. In the meantime, seems we can play on, just be aware that weird things can happen and I guess speak up if it's particularly damaging.

Looks like the turn isn't going to get to me before I leave for work and there are only 8 hours left on the clock.

We'll need a pause or increase in turn timer length please.

I think in sequential the timer refreshes every time the turn passes

I believe Pindicator was travelling yesterday / last night, hence the delay

No worries about the delay, it was expected with Pin traveling. smile

If the timer resets with each player then no problem.
