Follower becoming a spy on his own?

[Ikit Claw]

I recruited a level 19 bodyguard of one of the level 30 warchiefs and had him betray him.
I saw him as expendable and expected him to die. But he beat the guy to death in 10 seconds.

Here's the crazy thing. After that mission was over I moved on to the second warchief who had a different spy on him. The cut scence happens and who do I see standing behind him?

The level 19 follower! The warchief had 2 bodyguards and one of them was the same guy as before. Once again, he beats the guy to a pulp in about 10 seconds.

Can they just become bodyguards of warchiefs on their own or something?
This dude is a beast and at this rate I'm expecting to see him standing behind the overlord when the siege starts lol.

Might have to make him overlord if he keeps this up.

i believe they can im not sure on that though

You can brand orcs that are already bodyguards, they do engage in nemesis missions passively so I suppose they might fight for the bodyguard position, then become a spy themselves while the time passes in game.

I'm pretty sure I've not actually seen that happen, but I won't discount it outright.

It's a bug from the last script that was set for them. Once that mission is cleared you need to set them as a spy again which did not happen due to said bug. Games full of bugs.

I.E after taking over a fort it's a chance a unknown orc will be set as a war chief and your fort will be mixed of yours and said chief fighting nonstop. Another example when having no orc captions in a region and taking a fort on your own it's a chance the game will give you free orcs to choose for overlord with a chance of one having unbreakable trait.

Dang, I thought this dude was just a badass. Lol
Honestly, I'm just going to send him in for the rest and even the overlord and see if he can succeed. I'll make him overlord if he does.
