Roman Allies - Back to Front Facing (Cisapline Gaul)

I don't know if this is simply because I had a game in progress, but the Roman Allies (MF) are displayed back to front. It looks like they are facing away from the enemy even when they can move towards them!

Thanks - because of the volume of units we may have missed some issues like this. Please report any odd things you see and we'll fix them as soon as we can.

Yes me too and in the other scenarios also.

The issues are with the unit graphics so they will always occur if you find them, in every battle you use that unit. If you do spot the issue we need to know the army its from and the name of the unit and we'll be able to fix it. Thanks!

I must admit, for a few seconds, I was tempted not to point this out to my opponent so that he would attack my unit's 'rear'

But a sense of honour got the better of me

I just ran the Cisapline Gaul sceario. In my game the Roman MF Allies display correctly in the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock position. It is in the 2, 4, 8 and 10 o'clock position where they are reversed.
Iain, I didn't track down the army but if you run the Cisapline Gaul scenario and click through the facings of the Roman Allied MF unit you will see.

Thanks - that is enough info. For DAG games the army & unit name is what we need. For scenarios the scenario name and unit name should be enough.

Finishing Magnesia after installing the update I see Allied Extradorinarii are facing backward but other allies are correct.
One other thing I've noticed is that pursuing units do a little victory dance en route. It's kind of cute, but looks like a glitch.

Don't know why I didn't notice this before, but since we are using the "Cisapline" Gaul scenario as an example, the name "Cisalpine" is misspelled in the scenario name. It is spelled correctly on the units in the game.

Yes, it happens to me in every routed unit pursue. The pursuer moves back and forth quickly

I thought it a nice feature - trampling the dead

There is a graphical issue that crept at the very last minute that means on some rout/evade/pursuit moves, usually where you fail to catch the enemy, the charger/pusuer graphics sort of jiggles at the end of its move.
We have already fixed this for the next update.
Thanks

In a 400 point random scenario vs AI, some of the Illyrian Warriors had the wrong facing, but not all. AI was Illyrian.

The Illyrian medium foot face allsorts of weird directions when they move, just like the issue with the Roman allied foot.
