Could it be a difference in Go runtime? It's happened in 4/4 of the last games I played, one of which was here. I'm using the Go runtime from winget; I don't know if the version here on Itch.io uses the local Go install, or a self-contained one. It does generally take a while to show up; I fought a few dozen raiders before these latest two decided to glitch. Also they are a cavalry and a swordsmen, but that's probably not related. Those are very common units.

perhaps check for and delete units with zero HP each turn as a quick fix?

If you already added such a check, it seems to work well enough; I haven't been attacked twice by the *same* inexplicably still living zero-HP raiders.

There haven't been any explicit fixes for this issue yet.

It seems like three different instances of this bug so far, then:

Dead units lingering permanently.
Dead units lingering for one or two rounds.
Just encountered now in a local game: I conquered a Beastmen city, and there was a blank unit icon background in the army list on the overland map; there was no actual icon on it, just the background. When I clicked on this unit, the game crashed to desktop, no error message.

I haven't been keeping careful track, but it may only happen on Myrror. My reasoning is that, in this game, I conquered most of Arcanus, and encountered no problems, but immediately ran into the issue with the first city I captured on Myrror.

It did happen once on Arcanus, but it seems much more frequent on Myrror; and I'm fairly sure it only, or nearly so, happens when the combat is at a settlement.

I tried again on a Bazzite laptop. Spent a while building Dwarf cities on Myrror; over hundreds of turns and regular attacks from raiders, no glitch. I conquer a neutral town, and 4-5 battles later, the glitch happens. The trigger seems to be conquering a neutral town on Myrror; I have not seen it otherwise. I'm not sure if it's the first town I conquer, or at random. I don't think it has anything to do with the race of the town; it's happened with towns of multiple different races. I don't know if it only happens if the town has defenders when I take it.

Now that I'm feeling better, hopefully some portion of this semi-coherent rambling is useful.

Yes thanks. I will definitely try to resolve this issue

This finally happened to me. I conquered a neutral klackon city and after capturing it (not razing it) there was a blank tile in my stack of units in the city. When I right clicked on the blank tile the game crashed. I will try to fix this.
