Summary

0000796: Attacker creature ability used by the retaliating creature as well (new since 0.85b/c) + summon boat message in battle log

Description

You can reproduce by attacking Wraiths with Septienna in the VCMI_Tests_2011a map, and use Dread Knights as much as possible to have the Death Blow occur.

I've only had it in the battle between Dread Knights & Wraiths, but it happens every time: whenever Dread Knights use Death Blow, the Wraiths retaliate with Death Blow as well. When I scrolled the battle log to see if there's a mention of Wraith's Death Blow, I actually found a line saying they attempted "summon boat". Not sure if it's directly related or another bug (if another, I can open another report if needed).

Easily reproducible in 0.85b & 0.85c, never reproducible in 0.85. Given the fact that there were changes to creature abilities for the next release, this makes me strongly suspect that it may impact abilities which kick in in the moment of the attack. I don't have much time to run exhaustive tests to confirm that (I'd rather continue searching for other bugs), but if I run into a similar case for other ability I'll post an update.

Screenshots are from 0.85c (first showing the death blow on top of the knights). Saved game attached is from 0.85b, but if you have the map you can reproduce it in 0.85c just as well.

Notes
(0001968) Tow (developer) 2011-09-01 01:43	Fixed in r2340. The attack flag was not reset before counter-attack. It also affected luck and the second attack (for double-attacking creatures). Message in the log is also fixed, it was a simple typo.
