I just lost over 40 brigades because they got stranded in Persia after I won a war against the Ottomans and discovered that I couldn't move my soldiers from ex-hostile Persia to ex-hostile Turkey because the peace treaty was already signed. This is a serious issue that forced me to rebuild two full armies (thankfully I did have the resources and time to do so) and left me with a bitter taste in my mouth after what should have been a crushing victory.

I can see the funny side of it. I mean picture 75,000 stranded Austrian soldiers, stuck on the hostile side of the border, with their supplies running out, talking amongst themselves and wondering if they should maybe ask the Ottoman guards at the border if they can maybe cross over and go home now, please? Asking all five of the guards, because I'd annihilated the Ottoman army and in real life there would have been nothing stopping the Austrian army from just marching across anyway, regardless of whatever the Ottomans thought.

I lost the accumulated experience from six wars too. One for the next patch guys.

Yepp, I find myself having to plan for peace by moving my armies to the right place before I sign the peace treaty. It's stupid.

I played a game once; Declared war on Denmark, signed peace treaty; Troops stuck in Copenhagen. Wouldn't board ship. It's entirely stupid.

I understand the boarding ships issue but why should your army be allowed to enter a nation that you don't have access too? I agree they should be able to leave the nation for a friendly one or one you have a military access agreement with though.

This seems odd, can't board your troops from the province. If you register your game you can post in the bug reporting sub-forum, I would open a thread about it there. And if you have a save game with the issue the Dev's love those.

Because you had to cross that nation to reach the other nation that was on the first nation's side in a war and now your soldiers need to get home.

Well, if you can't click on the embark button it is because you can't get the navy to the port. Have you tested to not use the right click to move army to the navy? I thought my army was stuck once but then I found out that I could move the troops to the navy instead of clicking on the embark button.

And watch transport capacity of your transport ships. If you don't have enough free storage, divide troops on smaller groups.

Why there are restrictions to where you can move your armies in the first place is beyond me anyway. Who can stop it? Sure, reduce the relationship to the nation or something, but this is the napoleonic wars, armies were marching across whatever they wanted.

Usually when a army enters a nation without permission it is considered a act of war

Yes, but in this case the army needs to cross that nation to get home. Free passage of the otherwise trapped army is something of a given in any peace treaty, no?

Can you army go to a region with borders to the sea? If they can that use transport ships and split your army in small stacks if you don't have many transport ships. You can't get into a enemy port so you can't embark with the army but you can right click on the fleet when you have your army selected and the army will go there without using the embark button.

To clear up a bit of confusion the matter's already settled for me; I disbanded my army and rebuilt it at home. Beat the Russians too. I'm just pointing it out here so the devs know what's wrong.

Can't you reclaim the manpower from deleted units anyway? The monetary cost is negligible.
