Yeah this is WAD. Even if they may not be in the war against you, if an allied army is engaged in combat (and they are attached to that army) they will be in the fight as well. See it like this, if your ally armies is attacked just next to yours, you wouldn't just stand there and watch them get killed now would you? :happy:

And what does WAD mean ? Sorry.. I don't have a clue about it :)

Working as Designed. :)

Of course this makes sense. But hey, you could also think the other way round. I'm the ruler of Genoa, and I've agreed to give military help to the English in their war against Pisa, but not against France. When the English army marches toward Maine to fight french troops, genoan troops should "detach" before. I did not enter the province where that big army was, they came from the south, posssibly Aquitaine where the war was being fought, right to Maine to fight my troops.

I suppose you have a point. But if that is the case, you could always try to keep an extra eye on your units and detach them before your ally attack an army, that way, they shouldn't engage in combat.
