Cross of Vidar - Chap 6: IA stuck and softlocking the shipwreck
Hello everyone, I've encountered a weird and frustrating behavior from multiple Axe Thrower groups in the chapter 6 of the Cross of Vidar, in the stealth phase (first phase) of the mission.
1 - Story mode - Cross of Vidar - Chap 6
2 - Windows 10 Family
3 - DirectX
4 - After passing through the first two Naströnds, you're supposed to join the shipwreck and explore it to unlock the next objectives. Whiledoing so, you're supposed to dodge patrol groups but in my seed, the three groups that are -normally- patrolling are stuck in the shipwreck tile. So the objective is unreachable since the Axe Throwers have enough range to hit me from the center of tile to the edge. I chose Torfin as a councelor if that helps.
5 - Here your screenshot below, the game version is 3.5.34.39794
7 - Can't link the save file here since your tool doesn't allow me to, but it's ready to be shared in an email if necessary.

Mike MergedOnce I get to the area where the shipwreck is, the enemy patrols just camp the shipwreck and there is no way for me to kill 10 axe throwers to get to the ship and continue the mission, currently impossible to continue the story in Cross of Vidar, playing on Linux Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS, tried using the Proton compatibility through steam and now there are only 4 stuck, which is still too much. Also different difficulties result in a different amount of units stuck on the tile.

The screenshot included is on normal mode with Signy. -

The final 2 sets of enemy scouts are bugged and won't leave the boat area making finishing the chapter impossible.
Yes, I can reproduce this bug. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Started the mission from scratch and upon reaching the end of the mission there are 10 axe thrower (scout) characters all sitting on the shipwreck tile. They aren't roaming around actively searching. So sneaking around them isn't possible since they wont leave the tile. And defeating them 2v10 is also not possible.
Can't advance further in the DLC. -

spigz MergedIn mission 6 of the Cross of Vidar storymode where you are supposed to sneak around and rebuild the raft - 3 patrols spawn in on the initial shipwreck and fail to move. Since they refuse to patrol and are essentially glued to the guarding the shipwreck indefinitely the mission cannot be won. Which means currently the Cross of Vidar expansion cannot be played beyond mission 6. Derp.

Kat T MergedStory mode, OS 64-bit Windows 11. Every time I reach the boat for the first time, the troops don't move in a search pattern and never leave the boat area, meaning I can't salvage it. Have attempted reloading/using different advisors multiple times.

Sebastian Due Olesen MergedIn the story mission "Saint Germaine" in the "Cross of Vidar" story, the axe throwers that usually patrol through different areas all stop moving when they reach the first boat ruin, making the mission impossible to complete.

Fore more info, i picked Signy as secondary warchief, and I tried running both upper and lower path at the start of the game. I also tried skipping dialogue and letting it play out in its entirety, nothing helped.
My operating system is:
Windows 10 Home
Version: 22H2
Build: 19045.4894
I ran the game with DirectX
The bug happens every time i try to restart the mission, so it should be easy to reproduce.
See the attached image for validation
If needed, i will be happy to provide a save file, but I could'nt find an option to do so when creating this ticket. -

Ver. 3.5.34.39794
In my first try;
*Signy spawned with me at the entrance of the bog area.
*When I reach to the shipwreck I couldn't be able to salvage it cause 10 Axemen were waiting at that tile and not moving away.
*I searched the web and found out that heroes shouldn't be with us from the start.
* I tried again by choosing Torfin this time.
*Torfin wasn't with me at the start.
*But the shipwreck area was the same.
P.S. Check the image and please reach out to me for extra details if necessary.
P.S.S I love your game and supporting it as I bought every clan pack and Cross of Vidar as soon as I can get them. I also heard about a lot more bugs for Cross of Vidar. Please fix these bugs so we can continue having fun with this awesome game. I believe everything will be corrected in no time.
Thanks in advance for your care and time.
Sincerely,

KhargalSeems the issue is the lower pass, as it is now impassable thus patrols are stuck, unable to move through

SwissWolf MergedStory Mode - Cross of Vidar - Chapter 6: Saint-Germain, Advisor: Torfin, Difficulty: Extreme, Version: 3.5.34.39794
decided to try and get all missions done on extreme for the expedition/achievement. when i reach the checkpoint where the boat is the patrol units don't move like they used to/are supposed to. there is a patrol unit by the boat and one in the area to the bottom right of it and they both don't move around the areas to scout them and just sit there in one tile not doing anything, which makes it impossible to move on as i can't kill the entire patrol defending the ship to scout it out and then go get the resources to fix the boat. tried reloading a save, dying and reloading checkpoint, backing out and reloading, closing the game and reloading. nothing worked to make them patrol the areas.
i would like to give my save file but there is no way to upload that here so i don't know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -

Fullmetalriku MergedThe patrols at the boat wreckage will sit on the tile and not move. It seems to be because they can not move to the swamp south of the tile

Fredsame problem as everyone else, I'm asked to Scavenge the boat to escape, but their is a bunch of axe throwers who dont move at all just camping it.
It really sucks since i had just gotten back into the game but this kinda ruins it since i cant progress that campaign at all because of this -

hbalazs MergedThere are a bunch of units surrounding the wreckage. I've checked tutorials on how to do this level and I saw that they are supposed to move around.
I've tried restarting the level 3 times (the last time they were positioned on the tile in a way that I could sneak past them and interact with the wreckage, but when I got back they were spread out like on the picture).
I know that it's not apparent that they are not moving since it's a still picture. I gladly send a video recording as well.
This expansion has been out for 2 years, yet it is so riddled with bugs. I've encountered many in the campaign but this is the first that is game breaking.
How is it still in this state?
I love this game, but holy this DLC is just bad. -

DavidSo guys this good man who recorded this video for me managed to help me with bug. You will NEED TO play this mission on HARD DIFFICULTY. That way at the shipwreck will be only 4 axe throwers as you can see in the video. You need to choose Signy as your second warchief this is important cuz Trofin or whats his name wont spawn so choose Signy. You do some little micro and take them axe throwers down. Just follow the video it helped me and dont give up i tried like 20 times before i got it. Signy died in my playthrough but i got it and so will you!!! GOOD LUCK brothers. https://youtu.be/CVaCuHOtWoY

SchteenieSame problems as above. To complete all bonus objectives must complete one with Torfin, which seems impossible given the 10 axe-throwers loitering at the ship. I was able to complete with Signy today on extreme by scorching earth on the ship tile and killing the four axe-men as quickly as possible, protecting Hildegard if her health got too low.

Matt M MergedPeople say this is not a bug but a change to the game, but the way the story is set up it has become a bug. - Chapter 6 has a main goal to teach you about using ships to attack, and the goal is to use your ship to beat the enemy here. Problem is no matter how many times I send my ships they can't decolonize. :/ The way this map is set up its not meant to be reached by your land team. You can but on hard its next to impossible.
When my mercs take over the town they just stand there, and a 100% Occupied image just flashes on and off. Can't win! :( -

Lesnoi KotGuys, it looks like they fixed the bug. After the update, I entered the campaign on a high difficulty level, and the squad near the boat wasn't there. They were patrolling the area as they were supposed to from the beginning.
Thanks to the development team for creating this bug and fixing it)" -

Leonardo SallesEven after the update, Torfin still doesn't appear and the game crashes after finishing the main mission. Sadly, it's the only chapter left to complete the bonus missions. :'(

caiAt the end of the stealth mission, Hildegard ends the conversation with Liv and the game (freezes or something? just a blurred screen with an error warning) It was held on high difficulty with an additional voivode Signy.

Lesnoi KotAgreed. I was too quick to praise them. After completing the stealth segment upon arriving on the island, the game crashes. They fixed one bug, created another.

I chose Torfin as my advisor and started the mission. Watched the intro video, then waited for Hildegarde's conversation with Carloman and Egil to end. Next, night fell and Hildegarde was sneaking between Egil's patrols. Had no trouble clearing a path through Nastrond. Got to the shore where the boat was. Then I went to get my things, collected things from two places. And came out to the boat, scouted and then Hildegarde came to Liv. There was a dialog, which ended with Liv saying that she will destroy Egil, or something like that. And immediately a window popped up saying that something had happened and now the game might be unstable. Tried loading checkpoints, collected in different order things for Hildegarde, first from one place, -
