Comprehensive list of bugs that are currently in game. Rate severity from 1 (minor bug with little to no negative impact) to 5 (severely impairs gameplay). Remove when fixed, please include a brief description of the fix in the comment section when deleting. Try to be as concise as possible in the bug's description. For bug fixes that aren't put into the dev notes, it's helpful to know when a bug has last been checked for a fix, put the month and year in parentheses at the end if you've recently checked a bug and confirmed it's still in game.

|If your castles are very close, troop movements don't always work. This is especially true of fast troops like scouts. As I understand, it has to do with the timing of the server, and they are working on it. What happens is: you send troops from one castle to another. The countdown timer begins. As it finishes, it seems to report that the troops are no longer in the first city, but they haven't arrived in the second, either. Also, resources do not change accordingly. Refreshing reverts the game to the original troop amounts in each city. The work around seems to be to '''include one slow moving unit''' in the troops to be sent. You may look at [[Troop Speed]] to find a slow moving troop to include.
