Weird Battle in GAC - Leviathan vs Malevolence

I was using Leviathan vs opponents Malevolence. I was down to Hyena Bomber, vulture droid, plus summoned vulture droid. I'm 100% sure which vulture was which. I bring in Mark VI and nuke Hyena. I then shoot down the non summoned vulture. What happens next was strange. It appeared that summoned vulture winks out as normal, but Malevolence then got another turn, tried to bring in a reinforcement which was destroyed and then I won the battle. Anyone know how Malevolence got that extra turn instead of the battle ending with the summoned vulture disappearing?

    Just another bug CG isn't talking about or making a high priority to fix.

    Had a similar Mal weird encounter. My Geo spy and 3 summons versus enemy Rey MF. Geo spy hits MF to low health, counter attack killed spy, but MF died on its turn from buzz droids before my summons. Got the surprise battle victory although it wouldn’t have affected the overall GAC outcome.
  • Weird. I've never had problems writing HMF, RMF or LMF, which are the abbreviations of the Millenium Falcons.

    Because the one you chose is derogatory.

    Probably has to do with the tm gain when vulture's die, and feels a bit like an edge case, which is likely why it hasn't been fixed yet. But maybe it's more common, I don't face Mal very often.

    I’ve seen similar happen in TB with the summoned TIE fighters to support Scythe.
    This was before their recent fix of summons though.
    Also believe I’ve seen similar lately with the summoned rebel under MM.

    None of these two examples had any effect on battle outcome though and I expected them to be related to the recently fixed bug.
    However if similar behaviour is still observed… interesting…
  • Happens in ground combat as well with respawning summons being last on the field. Cost me a reva battle once when all jawas were dead and the summoned pirate jumped back in and one shot one of my siblings.

    It just happened with me minutes ago.
    Negotiator vs Malevolance.
    I ended up Sith Assassin's ship, than it left a summoned Droid Abutre. It exploded, mallevolance aoe attacks, than i summoned another Abutre and than it explodes by itself again.
    And before iden "version" and sand trooper did disappear and i won the battle. Dun know why it happened, but thanks anyway.
  • Something similar happened again today. Same match up. Took out the last geo, vulture droid winks out, instead of immediately going to victory, it shifts to my capital ship for a half second, then goes to victory before I could press a button.
