Glitched Invasions

I believe that's a different invasion glitch. I do remember seeing that also, but there were no other enemies when that happened. The problem these days, is where it gets stuck with 2 enemies on each beach...

This happened to me in Romana. We get through many brigades, until all of the sudden, only too enemies on each beach. We told everyone to let them through and these n00bs come in and takes them down. We told them to stop and they did, and we got the East route to open, we got Jolly Roger and won Tortuga. Here is my theory of this bug: When a brigade doesn't trigger the one after it, it has only a few enemies spawning. The only way to end this without losing the island it to let them through to clear a path.

Well, I'm interested in figuring out what causes that behavior. There seems to me, a condition (like someone running into a shop, the final enemy of that level not disengaging properly, or disengaging and thwarting the entire invasion) that this type of glitched invasion has consistently.
