Tarasque becomes unresponsive after moving army away pre-emptively at health threshold.

9 votes

I moved my army and artisans away after reaching the health threshold in the Tarasque fight, as it was quaking to summon iron deposits. After they crossed territory borders, Tarasque scripting broke and become immobile, unresponsive and unclickable.
Game is soft locked at this point.

Loading a save made at the point of failure does not correct.

I have the same bug. I had mined Tarasque in story mode final chapter to 15/20. Went to battle it more. Got him to about 2/3 health but my units were low on health, so I escaped back to my territory to heal. Returned to fight, got him to 50% where he was supposed to summon the deposits once more. He growled but no deposits were added. Tried to battle him several times, but only got a local aoe and a growl out of him. Can't fight him, mine him or get deposits. Running DirectX on Windows 10. Got a save file and a video.

Tarasque chapter- Got tarasque down to 16/20 then it freezes in the middle of the map and you cannot mine nor attack it. Waited two winters to see if the glitch would fix itself, but it for sure a bug. Unable to complete chapter due to not being able to mine tarasque.
1. Story Mode new expansion
2. Windows
3. Direct X
4. Will attempt to reproduce bug after I log out of this game

Got a similar error today.

The Tarasque still attacked me but I wasn't able to attack her. So i could reach the point, where she spawns the Mining Chunks.
The Bug appears instanly after game start with Eir as support Hero.
