[Bug/Gameplay] City razed out from underneath my Sovereign

from Elemental Forums

Due to a cash flow problem, I found myself with only one city and no units, so my sovereign was hanging out there playing defense against the horde of spiders spewing from a nearby spiderweb.  One turn, after clicking the "end turn" button, I got a notice that my city had been conquered -- with my sovereign, alive and well, looking rather embarrassed in the ruins.  I was watching the city when it was "conquered" and no enemy unit moved into it.  The only things nearby were a spider and an NPC, and neither of them appeared to have attacked it.

I had the same thing happen. And because you alreayd founded your kingdom/empire, you can't found it again. Nice little conundrum there.

I've noticed that when I have my Sovereign in a city and attack a unit immediately adjacent to the city, she still appears on the map, standing on a city tile (instead of disappearing back "into" the city).  Maybe the unit isn't flagged as still being in the city, so it looks undefended to the game engine?

Do you have an autosave that allows this to be reproduced? If so, we can use it.

I don't think I've got a save that'll do this right now, sorry.  I'll let you know if I get one.
