Scythian leaders aren't true Scythians

In the Great Mithridatic war scenario, when Mithridates opts for the Scythian Alliance he gets two 'Scythian' commanders. Unfortunately, they don't have the ability to lead the cavalry that appear under their command (i.e. they're still affected by the command penalty). I'm assuming this is unintentional...

Hello,

What patch version are you using ?

Could you post a savegame ?

Well everything is WAD, leaders are from Scythian Subfaction and Cavalry are from Nomadic Subfaction. Both Subfactions have command penalty for PON Faction.

Even if WAD, Situation seems quite Weird. One solution is to simple Combine (+ Button) one leader with one Cavalry. Command Penalty will be removed.

I will ask Design team if units can appear already ''combined'' in next patch.

But shouldn't the cavalry belong to the Scythian subfaction as well so that the Scythian leaders can command them effectively?

(and while I have your attention... what is the effect of combining? Does it somehow transmute the leader's nationality??? This seems even stranger)

I was wondering about this issue, too. Maybe there are no defined units for SCY subfaction, so the game gives them NOM troops instead?
