[.913] bug when defeated delin the pyre of man

from Elemental Forums

I defeated Delin the  pyre of man, when he was attacking my sov. There were a few bugs that happened in this case.

 

* Delin did not appear on the battlefield, only his fire elementals and ignys. Maybe this is because his army is too big (more than 9 units).

* After the fight, the loot was shown in the results field, but i did not receive these goods. This may be caused by the fact that I was immiately attacked by another unit.

Hey, just a quick question - are you using any mods? Because I just discovered a bug from a mod an hour ago that would cause the second thing. It may happen without mods.

No, I'm not using any mods. I did create a custom sov, but not with mods.

I think I experienced the same thing on .912. I had an Epic army, and it said I was facing off against an Epic army. I noticed 3 or 4 fire elementals in the front row, with ignys behind them (a couple of singles and a couple in groups of 3), no major baddie in the rear. At first I thought it might be a two part fight. I went in and killed everything, and it was fairly easy. The battle ended, and it said I had killed the Pyre of Man, so I just assumed that he was on of the fire elementals standing in front, and I thought he was just anticlimatically weak. I'm not using mods, but was using a custom sov.

Yeah, Delin's battle is bugged, not sure if it's because they don't have the model for him, or just because his army is all messed up.

Also, apparently when monsters attack you, you don't get their drop. I had the same thing with Vetrar, when he attacked me it says I got the drop, but no screen popped up on where to put it. Not like those do much anyways but sad nevertheless.

The model is there, I've fought him a once or twice out of a dozen attempts.

 

Pretty sure it's because of the hard cap on how many units can be on the tactical battle screen. I've seen his army up to 18 units but still only ever face 7.

I don't remember the spell, but there's one that disperses an army, I've cast that to fight "Delin".  I also have a sneaking suspicion that the failed conquest of the badlands happen because Delin wasn't really "killed".
