I tried to submit this using the normal bug command, but it was too long, so I am submitting here. (My apologies for the three incomplete bug reports I attempted to send.)

You head southwest, riding a dusky gray warhorse.
[Forest Road] (OutWldFrDt) [temperate]
You also notice a dogwood trunk (open), a tarnished shortsword, the corpse of a scarred mercenary and a nicked copper dagger.
Also here: a dirty archer (lightly-armored) and [[your dusky gray warhorse (ridden by yourself)]].
Obvious paths: west (roadriverbridge), northwest (river), north, northeast (road), east, southeast, south, southwest (river).

My main concern is that the warhorse is now aligned against me...can a GM step in to rectify this please?

Looks from the square brackets like you had targeted your horse. I think that is probably what caused the issue.

Did you try to target the archer with "target ar"? If so, maybe you accidentally added a w.

The real bug here is that the horse managed to charge itself. That's impressive.

No, but in fact I'm glad you brought this up...this is what was happened: (1) I targeted the rogue with 'target r' ...so far so good. I then slew the rogue. (2) Then I attempted to target the archer with 'target a'. Looking back, I see a line where it targeted a dusky gray warhorse.

I think the first bug is that somehow 'a' is a keyword for my warhorse and that's how it targeted it. I believe the archer was first in the room, so that makes it puzzling as to why the archer wasn't the first 'a' to be targeted.


Could 'a' be removed as a keyword for my warhorse, and perhaps all steeds ?

Yeah, and how I was able to reach around and stab him in the chest while mounted. I must have long arms.

You can't outrun the long arms of the... old guy.

It's because it's "a dusky gray warhorse". It happens if you have two horses in the same stable too.
