1

  • Game Version: v.100.18.9036.0 (533324R)

  • Build Number: 17540528

  • Platform: Steam

Issue: Nidhogg won’t attack Yinglong under most circumstances. When you get him to attack he doesn’t use his air myth unit attack, instead attacking as if they are a ground unit.

Trigger Event: Have Nidhogg attack Yinglong or vice versa. If you control Nidhogg he will not attack. If you control Yinglong you can get Nidhogg to attack by retreating briefly.

Repro Steps: Have Nidhogg attack Yinglong or vice versa. If you control Nidhogg (video 1) he will not attack. If you control Yinglong (video 2) you can get Nidhogg to attack by retreating briefly.

This bug is still there, it just happened in a game May 8th 2025. Yin Long attacked my Nidhogg, instead of a House of the Dragon like fight, the Nidhogg just sat there doing nothing and eventually died.

Even though default stance is ‘defensive’ he should still attack any unit that attacks him even without any player input.

I cannot upload a replay because I was playing using geoforce now, which doesn’t allow downloading replay files.

This seems like a wider (and persistent) issue with flying units. See the example below. Sometimes they refused to attack another flying unit unless that unit retreats from them.

or they both refuse to fight.
