Aren't units that survive two attacks on the same turn supposed to recieve an automatic promotion? Its always happened before, but in my current game it has happened twice that a valliant defender was passed over for promotion. :-| I wasn't positive the first time but it happened again for sure.
I have an American musketman fortified in a town and was attacked by two Aztec knights. He was a veteran before and after the attacks. There have been quite a few 2nd attack promotions otherwise in the game. Emperor level with everyting on default settings.
The only thing I can think of is the attacks came from two different squares. Should this make a difference? Should it not but still does?
Er, just realized that the first knight retreated, so I guess my generals aren't that impressed by a successful defense, unless the troops produce some scalps as trophies. :D
