Could you do something about this please. Just had 4 kislev stacks as azazel and im defending a siege and wulfrik has an army behind my city so he gets in the battle if they attack.


But wulfrik randomly decides its time to run away randomly so of course he aint helping at all.


Like whats the point telling AI to defend points if they don't effin STAY THERE TO DEFEND!

Four armies versus you in the walled town and Wulfrik nearby?


In this case his escape makes sense.


#1 scenario - Wulfrik is coward:


You alone face four armies and he will stay alive.


#2 scenario - Wulfrik is not a coward:


One army besiege your town and one other army (supported by all others) can attack Wulfrik. You will not be able to help him and he will be destroyed. Then you will face four armies.

What needs to stop here is the whole "army can lay siege to a city but also participate in battles around it without lifting the siege". That has always been nonsense that needs to go. Single lords being able to besiege an entire city should be removed along side it as well.

I was holding azazels main city, and wulfrik had a stack standing right behind it (he is my vassal that I gave order to defend the city), but the moment I got sieged by great orthodoxy, he ran immediately away but apparently he's moving in with another army but its gonna take him like 4 turns to get to me...at which point he was of no use. I would have preferred if the first army would have stayed put and not run away the moment I got sieged. I would have probably asked him for the stack but sadly not enough points as I just made him my vassal like 4 turns ago.


Lost the city cause they had so many tzar guards and lords and heroes and two lilttle groms.
