no it may not be a bug.. theres no official guide for this game.. the behavior of loyalty may be coded to emulate a step function, x to 1 as mentioned .. 1 to 0 who knows how

and this is my experience while conquering.. cities with many warehouses and small armies generally stall at 1 loyalty

its happened like 10 times now.. thrice for the same city, twice i brought it to 1 loyalty and once my alliance buddy.. it stays there for hours and then he wakes up XD
