I just created a new human fighter to do the very first adventure. So i took everyone out of my party except for my dwarf fighter, then moved my new character into the party and then removed the dwarf fighter. When i went to my home keep to equip items on him, it showed nobody in my party, so i thought i might have to level him up first. I then started the first adventure, and the first battle started without anyone in my party, i could only pass. I believe it should not be possible to remove a character when it's the only one in the party? After quitting the adventure i was able to move the new character into the party and do the first adventure normally. It seems i might have created the ultimate coward.
Ah i already thought my first comment might not be clear enough. I actually did not try to remove the last character, i had the newly created human fighter as the one character in the party when i left the tavern. But somehow he got kicked out from that point, leaving me with an empty party in the keep and first adventure. I'm not sure if that is a better description. But at least i am trying, which is more than my fighter that does not even show up in it's own battles.
It sounds like something screwy is going on when adding and removing characters, which is also causing a few other bugs. I'm checking this out now. Thanks for the heads-up!
