Dismountable cavalry

[pantherboy]

I just started deployment in a match and have purchased the dismounted byzantine spearman. As I was deploying them I noticed that they could remount so I clicked it curious to see if they would remain at 480 strength but did not. So I dismounted them but when doing so the spearman image went strange with the 8-figures being in a huddle rather than line but what was worse they remained at their cavalry strength of 230 rather than going back to the units original strength. I crashed the game as I did not want to start my match with an understrength spear unit rather than hope it would sort itself out after I finished deployment.

You did the right thing, Steve, it would not have corrected itself.

Thanks for spotting this bug. They should not be able to remount. (They have been paid for as infantry, and we don't want double-sized cavalry units).

It is too late to fix this issue for the forthcoming patch, but it will be corrected in the following one.
