Weird happening in a game

In a game of Heraclea with jimcdaw playing the Romans and me the Pyrrhic, the game isn't letting me move my units on the extreme left. This followed a strange happening with an attacking Roman Equites unit, where some odd figures emerged during combat and it ended showing up as a merged unit - called Equites (Rome) and Tarantines - with a blue/red ring. Funnily enough I think it may have merged with a hypaspists unit which it had previously routed (my tarentine units are still showing and were not involved in any combat with the equites concerned).

I will add a screenshot below if I can find out how to upload it.

Edit: Apparently there isn't an upload facilty but I can email the screenshot and some others showing the lead up if that would help. Obviously we can't continue with the game until this is sorted.

Sound like a pointer got corrupted, just a gues though. Might not be the game.

Sorry I don't understand. What do you mean by a pointer?

I had the same issue in Indastavio during multplayer... Some of my germans routed thru other units and the graphics became odd, like the units were spliced together as you describe. For me though it was just a graphical thing, no units were locked up or behaving oddly...

Send us a screenshot and try save/load to fix it.

Saving/reloading isn't fixing it, so its being looked into.
