Combat Lockup

Game would not let me take the final Austrian pursuit loss or exit? Had to ctrl-alt-del. I should have been able to take an Inf loss from IV corps, as shown. But I think something else was going on since I noticed some odd strength changes just before this final result. I'm pretty sure IV corps was reduced lower but then got something back. The Land Combat autosave appears to be from the previous turn so I can't reproduce this. It's strange; I wanted to mention it but it's probably not worth a bug report?

Appreciate the post. I'll take a look at the pursuit code. This should have totally eliminated the defender???

I've seen some wierd results with both casualty taking and pursuit results after the battle has passed the Militia threshold.  Sometimes, the last round caps the losses at the # of factors of non-militia.  Sometimes, during pursuit, Militia, or partial portions of militia, can't be taken.

Another question I have.  Let's say you have a corps with 1 inf left, another with 2 inf and 1 cav left.  In the board game, you can take 3 inf, but in EiANW, it seems like you have to take the cav.

got a similar situation yesterday.  I was actually able to take 1 inf, because casualty is corps based.
