This is something I came across while trying to help a couple fellas track down why some missions aren't populating. When you start a custom arena, the arena rotates the fields' ownership. Normally it should be like this:
Country 1-Bishop
Country 2-Knight
Country 3-Rook
But when you start a custom arena, the game changes it to:
Country 1-Knight
Country 2-Rook
Country 3-Bishop
The countries are moving one ownership number backwards.
It can be manually fixed via the arena settings, but many players have never dealt with arena settings before and may not know where to go on the clipboard to fix it. It was the reason at least one staged mission was not populating. Unless you manually adjusted the countries first, the mission would not populate.
Here is an example. I am using one of my terrains because I know for sure what the field ownership is by default on it. If loaded offline or in the AvA, I get this:
Correct
If loaded in the custom arenas, it changes to this:
Rotated
