BUG Gauran Games quest attacks village instead of the quest unit

Hi,



This isn't new to the Shifters DLC as I've seen it before. I just haven't reported it, but this irks me enough that I'd like to report it.



1. I received the Gauran Games quest from a village in my region.

2. I split my hero off from the army and parleyed with the village again to get the quest unit to spawn.

3. The quest unit spawns directly on top of the village.

4. Everytime I attempt to attack the quest unit, it attacks the village instead.

5. Killing the village first causes the quest to fail.



I've tried reloading many times.

I've tried attacking from each of the different hex tiles (and yes there are available hex tiles next to the village that the quest unit could spawn on - it just doesn't.



Is there any other way to force my hero to attack the quest unit first instead of the village? Otherwise, this is a really aggravating quest bug.



Thanks!

I've ran into this problem multiple times as well. Additional details:



1. The quest minotaur that is spawned does not attack the leader used to update the quest.

2. The quest minotaur never moves off of the village.

3. Selecting attack and clicking directly on the minotaur's unit shield does nothing.

4. As noted above, clicking on the village tile attacks the village and the units housed there, causing the quest to fail if the village is destroyed.



I have attached a saved game where the quest is active, and I have an army with a hero near the village.

Ok so I see the issue thanks to your save.



To be very clear, the behavior of the quest army is not the problem.

It is waiting for you to attack because in some way it is the Gauran champion waiting for your hero to proof its strengh.



If you decide to attack through the GUI panel by using the attack army action then selecting the quest unit indeed it will attack the village.

I confirm this is a bug and is not intended.

Thanks for the report!



Meanwhile, in order for you to complete the quest, I suggest that you select your hero then directly right-click on the quest unit.

The battle should occur immediatly choosing the right army to defeat.



Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'm having a sort of similar problem, except the quest unit just doesn't show up at all.



What should I do?

That's another type of problem ^^

In order to understand why, the best is to have a save just before the unit appears (or at least before it should have been visible).

But I can understand it is a bit late for that.



Unfortunately we cannot fix a save after those kind of issue occurs. We can only force the quests completion if required and we can try to ensure that it won't happen again (as soon as we found the solution).

If you want us to have a look at your save anyway please do not hesitate to upload it. I may see something else that could explain the issue.

I have the same problem, is there any solution to this?

What "same" of the different discussed issues within this thread you could run into?

The Gauran unit doesn't spawn for me.

Could you upload a save file this place? Keep in mind your hero has to be alone in your armystack. You can have an army with additional units close to your hero, so they can join the fight as reinforcements.

I've tried that too and it didn't work. Do you perhaps know where are autosaves located? I'm playing with Proton and have no idea where to find them o.O

I've found them, playing with ELCP latest version, here's a file with the hero (and maybe another unit) located at the village (Ignore the terrible play so far. :)  ):  AutoSave 22.sav In later rounds I've moved the rest of the army and the leader far away then only the leader approached and nothing happened :( All DLCs available.
