BUG: Prologue Hunnic Invasion
Made it to the point where you're supposed to attack a second army of Hunnic raiders. They have gone completely passive sitting in outside provinces. Apparently the campaign rules forbid me from leaving my lands (cannot move here cursor), and they seem to be flat out refusing to come to me. All I can do is hit end turn over and over and over and nobody does anything.

TLDR: Campaign script must be bugged: I can't attack them and they wont attack me. As such I cannot progress.

Did you capture all possible goth towns? There is one in the north you might have missed.

Otherwise try removing your armies from the border provinces. They might be more interested in a defenseless town.

I completed the prologue. I believe you need to defeat 2-3 armies (not sure as I managed to kill several of them in 1 attack) of them to move on (10 units should be sufficient) and you better start saving some money at that stage.

Yes I had already finished taking all the cities. That objective is before the Hun raiders.

I eventually had to leave my cities ungarrisoned (silly), and leave one of my armies hidden in a forest and wait for them to finally tiptoe across my border. The army they sent after me was a pathetic 129 men... Looks like they spent so much time wandering around that their full stack (20 units) just starved to death.

Looks like the prologue campaign could use a little touching up. I shouldnt have to leave my towns defenseless to prompt an invasion from the Huns.

Had and still have the same problem. Tried saving and reloading, the Huns moved the turn after but still outside my area ... the Prologue is now on hold untill that is fixed. That and there is a faction that keeps dying every turn (Hunnic Separatists?)

So what exactly is the victory condition?

I had this also, it's more an AI design overlook than an actual bug. To work around it, put your armies in ambush stance so they are invisible to the Huns, that will provoke them to attack your settlements, it worked for me at least.

will try this, thanks :Surrender:

edit: worked for perfect for me

I have the same problem. Leaving my settlement undefended doesn't help. So... I have to start over?

It's a poor scripting decision. They decided to not allow you into their lands, but then don't force them to come to you either. Did you make sure that your army was in ambush stance and in a forest? If your army is visible on the map, the AI will not come anywhere near you.

I tried ambush first, but no luck. Then I moved all my forces to the other end of the map, still no movement from the AI. Luckily I had a save game from when the first two Hunnic forces attacked. So I beat one first for the first mission, then the next after I got the second mission. After that, the rest of the prologue triggered.
This is still an issue :(
