City Defense

from Elemental Forums

Has something changed in the city defense in LH .... I had my Heroes Army in the city when a nastry spider hoard attacked and all I had to defend with was some militia.  My main army was not engaged and after the milita battle the city was lost?

The units were probably standing on top of the city but not in it.

This can happen when you use your garrisoned army to attack something, they will end their turn "ontop of the city" -- which I guess is suppose to be mean they left the city gates.  I put this problem up as a bug myself, but had it pointed out the mechanic could be purposeful.

There is a bug fix for the next patch:

If a unit is standing on a city at the end of its turn, and it doesn't have a destination set to leave at the start of the next turn, it will auto station that unit in the city

Yes, this sometimes happen.

 

Also, the enemy can sometimes get out of his city and attack you with his hero & troups + city defenders, although apparently you can't do that.
