Why won't Virgil attack?

    Hello all,

    I am fairly early in the game, but have come across something that I *think* may be a bug, but may also be something I'm stupidly overlooking.

    It's just me and Virgil right now, and he has recently decided to stop helping me beat down my enemies. It doesn't matter if I initiate combat myself (either manually or through dialog choices) or if something attacks me first, such as a wolf or sewer rat or whatever. He runs up to the mob like he's gonna attack, gets in his attack pose, but then when I hit "E" to end my turn he just stands there, the enemies attack, and it's eventually my turn again. I've actually been knocked unconscious and had the mob literally beat Virgil to death without him lifting a finger in his own defense. If I switch to real-time however he fights normally.

    It wasn't always like this, when I started the game he would always help me out versus the various beasties during turn based, now he just stands like a lump. I've tried dumping him out of the party and re-adding him, along with equipping him with different weapons, no go.

    Anyway, any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Jon

    That's definitely a bug. If he fights in real time, but not in turn based, it's a bug.
