Corrupted an air shard I had built on already. Error message that the shard couldn't be destroyed because it would break the contiguous-ness of my city. Air shrine disappeared and death shrine appears. Cannot build on the death shrine. Air shrine still adding mana to my pool despite being destroyed.

Corruption does not work correctly if you cast it on an already built shard. If you have the built shard selected, when cast corrupt on it, it will basically put a un-buildable death shard, on top of the already existing shard.

I've found that I can get it to work correctly, only if I cast it on an unbuilt shard, and do not have it selected when casting the corrupt spell on it. Since using this method, I've had 0 failures with the corrupt spell.

See more details here.

I just ran into the same bug in 0.86. Started building a shrine. Decided I wanted to use Corruption to change it to a death shard. Shard converted, but I can't build on it now. It just tells me to learn shard harvesting. Ditto for trying to convert one in a conquered province that was already built on.
