Summary0002028: Soldiers' weapons become forbidden, probably because they're stuck in an enemy when the enemy dies
DescriptionOn a regular basis, weapons used by military get the forbidden flag, causing them to drop them somewhere and bashing with their shields instead.
Steps To ReproduceNot sure, i *think* it might be connected to the fact that if a weapon is lodged into a wound on an enemy, it becomes part of that inventory for a short while.
If the enemies stuff is forbidden (in the orders menu), so becomes that weapon.
So far happened to battle axes, short swords and spears for me.

This is a good guess -- it probably happens if it's part of their inventory when they die.
