Summary0009113: Merchant Guards killing Liasion during battle with wild animals
Descriptionthe Merchants and outpost liaison were on their way out of the fort through the caverns when they ran into a small group of crundles. the liaison was in front, and attacked and killed one of the crundles. immediately after he killed it, the sword dwarf and hammer dwarf accompanying the caravan attacked and killed him. this did not cause a loyalty cascade, nor did the merchants turn hostile towards my fort. the merchants simply continued on their way after slaying the rest of the crundles.
Steps To Reproduceprobably could be reproduces by having the caravan with liaison in tow attacked by wild animals while leaving the map.
Additional Informationunfortunately, I didn't notice that it was the merchants who killed the liaison until many saves later, so I don't have a save from before he got killed.

Do you have a save or at least a combat log to verify this report?

The original save was overwritten, but I do have screenshots of the combat log.

On that note, I'm new to this system, so I'm having a little difficulty trying to figure out how to attach the images.

You can't here, as of yet, but you can upload them to a photo sharing site such as Photobucket and post a link to them in the bug report.

I put a screenshot of the combat log on the file site.

*note* the liaison is referred to a "the ranger" in the log because that was his original profession, and after a new liaison was appointed, it reverted to that retroactively in all the logs.(I confirmed it was actually the liaison by carving a slab, and in the description it listed him as the outpost liaison. I can upload that pic too if you want.)

I guess it is probably some loyalty issue. For whatever reason those crundels were treated as friends with merchants, so when they (crundles) got in battle with liaison, he got treated as their (merchants') enemy.
