Bug turning the hard map unbeatable

[Karl Marx's Das 2TC Kapital]

So I was playing the hard map with werewolves in the middle north of you from the start. It wasn't too hard and I was just staying away from them.

But then my carriers decided there was something dropped on the ground near the werewolves, probably some coal or something, and started running at them. And now I had my entire population throwing themselves at the werewolves and turning into more werewolves.

So the problem here were many things. For one I noticed several times that my people were getting bitten and it was always an easy fix. Move some guards aways, remove a coal mine, remove a hunters hut. Whatever it was taking them near there. This always worked to stop feeding the werewolves.

But when it's the carriers themselves doing it I can't stop it. There's no way to tell carriers to not pick something up. So it made the map completely unbeatable right there and I just had to restart. The carriers even went straight off the road to pick up whatever it was.

Well, you unlocked the ultra hard map.
So the game either does need a option to set a forbidden area/ignore task or the workers should get a "fear" stat that prevents walking to close to enemys.

Did you expand to much in direction of the werewolves? Or can the carriers pick something up beyond your borders too?

I was expanded close to them but there's no way to un-expand and it's almost impossible to control where the guards expand to so even if i was very careful it'd still be almost impossible to avoid.

You will either have to ungarrison the guards, or tell them to expand in only one direction (or a combination). This map isn't really meant to be easy to pass on the first attempt.

I finished the mission now. It was pretty straight forward when I just started being really careful about where my borders expanded to. Though I would still like a bit more control over things that are already in my territory.

A tip: if you dont set guards in Towers at this position. It gives no one who expand your land. ;) Set people with the Silver-Weapon in this Tower and then attack only with them the wolves.

Ok but what happened to me in another game was I didn't expand close to the werewolves but their raids bolstered their numbers enough that they came close to my borders anyway and then the bug happened and my population started feeding themselves again. So take your smugness somewhere else.

Had the same problem. There was one single item of coal lying around close to the wolf den. Had to escort the carrier with an army of 10 to get the coal. Killed ~15 wolves, lost 10 daredevils, and no more carriers trying to suicide into the den.

Yup, having the same issue - I kept away from werewolves but they ended up coming to me and invading my town until there was no carriers left - Not sure if silver is used to kill them but if so, it is a shame the closest silver ore just so happened to be right by them there werewolves, or far west. Meaning, there is no early defence against them as I could see it That is indeed if Silver kills the w-wolves
