[bug] [Rivals 2.0.1.2] Game-breaking: "ally" blocks chokepoint on strategic map

from SorcererKing Forums

Playing the campaign map.

I had recently allied with the wraiths and needed to get an army into the swamp giants territory to do a quest for them.

The chokepoint into the swamp giants territory had 3 wraiths sitting on it,  and they Would.Not.Move.

I could not move through them.   Talking to them did no good (just brought up the usual diplomacy window).

I could not find a way to politely ask them to get out of the way,  and could not bring up the blockade quest because the #@!$(* wraiths were sitting on it.

I gave them 10 turns, then quit in frustration.

 

So,  two questions:

1.  does anyone know of a way to move through / switch places with an allied army?

2.  if not,  can one please be added?

 

Thanks!

There are some ways to go:

- Use the ship.

- Build outpost and cloudwalk.

- Start a war.

- Stop torturing yourself.

Ship:  tried it.  no go.

Outpost:  interesting.  Did not figure game would allow me to teleport around quest obstacle,  but perhaps it does..  not a bad solution if you don't mind wasting mana getting in and out of the territory.

War:  letting a movement mechanic dictate my foreign policy would be .. unsatisfying.

Torture:  not so much.   I go play other things that don't have game-breaking bugs.

 

Anybody know,  do the devs read this forum?
