Summary

0008134: Undead siege led by human zombie instead of necromancer

Description

I was attacked by two dwarf necromancers and undead in spring of year 2. The necromancers ran off the map after seeing marksdwarves in the tower, but the undead did not attempt to leave the map and the "SIEGE" label remained. I eventually abandoned the fort.

Checking the legends afterwards, I saw that the siege was listed as led by an unnamed zombie human instead of the necromancers. I'm not sure if the undead remaining on the map without necromancers is intended, but if it is not then I think the cause could be that the forces are led by a random zombie instead of the necromancer controlling them.

Steps To Reproduce

I haven't tried to reproduce this yet because it's a bit time consuming.

1. Embark in range of necro tower, wait for undead siege.
2. During siege, cause necros to leave the map. The undead will remain.
3. Abandon and check legends for siege leader.
