[bug][0.86]Scroll of Escape

from Elemental Forums

I used a scroll of escape in a city defense; instead of the scroll teleporting my army back to my capital it teleported me outside the city I was defending (cornered in a spot where the only available movement spot was to attack that same city again; thus in order to rescue my champions I had to sacrifice them against that same city I tried to flee from). This city was not my capital, just some random city I conquered.

According to the decription of the scroll of escape it should take the champion and his army back to the capital upon use.

I used a scroll to escape from a tactical battle triggered by quest dialog - the tactical battle ended and my champion returned to the map either on the quest tile or an adjacent one.  The quest icon disappeared and the quest was marked as failed.  When I clicked end of turn the NPC army spawned by the quest attacked my champ again.   I did not notice them on the map before that 2nd battle.

The escape combat spell could also use some improvement. You escape combat but are then located in the same square as the monster you just attacked. Not a very good escape.

I think it works OK.  You escape, and then flee for your lives -)  Where it fails is you escape and then get instantly attacked again, that's not so good.
