Intercept Glitch

[ZBest]

As you can see -- the camp is being fought -- and has been beaten -- and is being torn down.
Under these circumstances -- the camp should not be able to intercept -- but yet it still does (repeatedly)

PLEASE FIX!!!!!!! Your crappy glitch has already cost me at least 400gc worth of troops.

That's a picture of a camp still in battle, not being torn down.

Your post makes no sense ... "the camp is being fought -- and has been beaten" Those are contradictory statements since the first describes something that's actually happening now, ("is being fought"), and the second refers to a historical event, ("has been beaten").

But for clarity, what we can see from your screen capture is a snapshot of an on-going battle. Based on what BB has said about battle mechanics, there's no glitch here - it's functioning as designed.

The "battle" (troops fighting other troops) is over -- and it's in the camp destruction section (teardown).

In your own words -- there is a "camp still in battle" -- so it shouldn't be able to intercept.

Not sure if the engagement was a blocking manuever, but I thought the reason for blocking was to engage the camp so the other army could go by withou being intercepted. This doesn't look right, but I've never used the blocking move yet. As far as the battle being over, I was under the impression that the battle wasn't won or over until all the squares in the box under the camp were gone.

It never felt wierd to you when you're attacking the watchtowers in SFTR and it takes a minute and a half to take out 15 deserter longblows? When it takes 10-20 seconds to take out a regular camp? (It's not because the battle takes 8 or 9 rounds, it's over in 1 -- it's because a watchtower 'teardown' takes 8x as long)

if the camp is fighting, it is blocked, so this is really a glitch

and i dont think this will be fixed, atleast not in a short time, i had a problem with positions to place the garrisons not showing, and its still not fixed so, fastest way to get past this problem will be making a different block
