new bug? captured workers dissappear

[cort]

is this a bug or what? after the installation of patch, my captured workers vanish, making it impossible to recapture them!


say, in the middle of my territory, AI knights capture a worker of mine. regarding the movement rules, it is definetely not possible for him to escape captured worker back to his territory but somehow it can, worker dissapears..

anyone has an idea?

Not bug. Smart AI.

It does this to prevent your re-capturing of workers.
Guard them or accept your losses.

Note that the AI still keeps workers that it captures near its border.

I did notice this too. Where do those workers go? *I* have to move my captured workers back to my territory. Why doesnt' the AI? It seems reasonable to be able to "liberate" prisoners of war. Kind of crummy if you ask me. *Sigh* Oh, well.

AI is destroying them. Had this happen with barbarians taking out workers. Obviously the rivil Civ figures it can't get the unit back to it terrority so its useless to it anyway and why let you have it back?

AI is destorying the captured workers?!
wow thats cruel but smart.. very smart.. i have to do that too..


there are so many bugs that, i just thought i have faced another one..
