Polonia Camaraderie not working ?

[Buerski]

Hey !

i'm not sure if it's a feature or a bug, and I also only have one occurence I encountered, but it seems to me that the camaraderie power is not working. I went to an hex without putting up any fight and chasing an enemy worker and I had the pop up that I loose 1 popularity.

However there are two reasons for me to doubt it's a bug :
- In the rule description, they say after a fight, but in the little circle they don't. Which is true ? Here I didn't fight so maybe the power is just less useful than I thought and in this case I withdraw my critic
- Maybe the bug is just the pop up, I didn't actually check my counter to see if I indeed lost it.

Thx for your attention and the hard work, the game is great.

It only applies to combat.

As frank says:

Camaraderie only works if an actual fight occurs. If it's just a worker stomp, you still lose popularity.

Thematically, it's Polania "warning" the workers that a fight is about to happen, they'd better leave. If however you come stomping in all over the peasants with your mech, that's a completely different story. Basically:

"Hey. Nothing personal, but that army is a target, and you're standing in the blast radius. Leave while you can" feels better than

"Nice farm. We'll take it".
