When a camp has Cavalry in it, Dracul will go for the weakest target and attack them. Doesn't matter who else is there.
If a camp has Cavalry and Militia in it. It doesn't go for Cavalry and attacks Militia, as he suppose to.
So is this some kind of hidden feature or a bug?
If it's the last one, when will it be fixed?
He doesn't attack weakest target first. Who does it is Master of martial arts
only recruit and militia deserter can protect cavalry deserter. you should learn more about combat system, and order of attack. guide is somewhere on forum
no bug
He does when it comes to Cavalry.Quote:

In BK the order is Militia Deserters, Cavalry Deserters, Soldier Deserters, Elite Deserters, Bowman Deserters, etc.
That information is hard to find. Didn't know about that on sims.
I didn't know it either but noticed it when I was testing Dracula
It used to that important info like this was easy to find if you just clicked on the enemy camps.
Unfortunately, the "pop up" troop counts don't work properly and show troops in a random order. So much for improving the game...
But, yes, now the only way to know enemy attack order is to look at the simulators. Sad when you need to use an external tool to be able to play the game properly...
TL;DR
Dracula isn't bugged
The underlying combat system is bugged...
All units will attack first cavalry then elite soldier not only dracula. every general and every our unitsQuote:

you have a lot example, for example on boss camp did you first attack other units or books which are in camp? boss much more HP than any other unit in camps. also roughneck can't protect dogs.
we never was attacking unit by HP.
why you didn't write anything when units attack first crossbow deserter then cannoneer deserter? that also happened in BK on few camps.
keywords: order of attack
I was never thinking of them getting attacked hp based. I counted attacks by their placement waves and not by hp, which would be a logical thing to do. Since there's actually no place to find this kind of special information anywhere for newcomers and nobody has mentioned about it either until now, because I found the Cavalry situation. Otherwise I wouldnt have any idea.
Many old players don't even know it. That's why I created the topic, since the ones I asked ingame had no idea about it.
This is a symptom of people blindly following guides and never actually "playing" the game.Quote:
