So, I have Carrodus on the run.  This guy steps into the fog of war, and I lose him.  No biggy.  I build up my army and my towns and send out a couple of familiars as scouts.  They track him down.  I'd found the little chicken.

He's built another town.  He sneaks out the back gate in the middle of the night.  I slaughter the undefended town.

This time, he doesn't get as far and makes what I thought would be a final stand.  Gallantly, he strides out of his newest, shiniest town yet, probably embarrassed by his earlier tactics.  Unfortunately for him, I blast away with a few well placed spells ending Carrodus' life.  I make short work of the rest of his crew and somehow, at the end, the wily devil escapes.

And that, my friends, brings me to the undead army of Carrodus.  He has one health remaining and his retainers, including his spouse, stand in shambles beside him still (each with a whopping 0 health).

I really wish the save reproduced this error, however it seems an undead army can't take the act of loading.  However, I did see fit to take a screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7804175/TheUndeadArmyofCarrodus.png

Seen this as well. Loading isn't their only kryptonite, the deadly next turn button seems to finish off the undead as well. Looks like he game fixes this all on it's own, once it realizes they really dead. Reminds me of the old movies were the guys gets shot in the heart and stands there looking at the hole for a few minutes before dropping...
