[H3SW v0.8.0] Knight Troops stacks generated for AI hero armies

This is a very nasty bug, confirmed numerous times.

If you happen to meet it, feel free to leave us a savegame in this thread. We will need to track this bug down and see how the game treats these stacks appearing from nowhere.

Thanks. I am getting more reports when the Knight stacks appear in castle garrisons. Maybe this is somehow related to the way AI treats the castles.

Got one for you here:

Before spawn

After spawn

Should spawn a Horde of Marksmen at Mossden to the far north after you end turn, in a swamp biome. Take the marked Stone Liths if you need to get there (if not marked, it should be right next to you). It took a few turns for the stack to spawn initially when I was testing. Had to go far away for him to take the castle back ^^

I've noticed that the AI does not use a lot of creatures either in general. I don't think I've seen a group of over 10 tier 7 units yet, and tier 1 I think I've seen 150 tops in a group. I got a cartographer pretty early, and I haven't really seen the AI fight each other, or them battle anything that would wipe them out.

Good news is that we found out the code piece where the malfunction exists.

Bad news that is is a HUGE piece of code.

Hopefully, we can fix it rather soon, because this fix is the most crucial for the next coming update and we will not release anything until it's done.
