Archers moving in front during portal attack

[[PMC] Portable Merc Collector]

Just had this happen multiple times in a single game and each time it happens it's infuriating, to me at least.

I'll send archers and knights/swordsmen to attack the portal. Occasionally when fighting back greed, one night will turn around and face backwards causing the column of archers to walk behind him and get wiped out by the greed.

Anyone know what causes this or how to prevent it? It's really starting to annoy me now, and seems to happen a lot with Shogunate for some reason.

It's a bug they introduced in the last update. The knights are very broken right now in all the game modes. Hopefully the devs will do something about it... but all I got when I sent in a report was "Please send a video and a save file so we can see the issue"

Right now the only thing I've been able to do is just attack repeatedly or build extra knight towers and take 4-5 knights.

Here's another discussion about it:

Interesting, so it is a bug. Thanks for the info.

Noticed the same and it is annoying :( One potential "solution" I found to this problem is avoiding having any coins dropped on the floor in front of the knights. I observed that having coins laying on the ground is what sometimes makes the soldiers want to go and pick them up, which makes them stand in front of the knights (and be killed by the greed immediately).

Great to hear! Thank you for keeping tabs on the situation. Looking forward to a fix if one comes.

Still not fixed. Don't know if it's related but the knights after a while, turn around and run to the opposite side and attack another portal.

Just revisited the game and this bug makes the higher difficulty modes unplayable. I will not buy the new DLC until this is fixed.

I'm still having this problem. All archers died before the knights were killed.

Ya, they didn't seem to have touched this bug in the last bug fix update.

After the patch I'm having an issue where only like three archers are defending a wall at night. They're all sitting there, but most of them aren't doing anything.

Hello, I still have this issue, how to install this patch ?
I uninstalled, reinstalled and uptaed the game but the issue is still there.
