I encountered the most bizarre bug. I saw a wandering halberdier approaching so I summoned a warbear which took it out one square below my capital. The next turn since my warbear was badly hurt, I sent it back to the capital and was told it was entering a monster lair with a death knight. The weird thing is, my capital seems to be functioning normally--I can build stuff and units can leave but units coming in hit the lair.

I'm trying to attach an image of the monster lair partly covering up my city with the flag showing but it doesn't want to accept a .jpg , .gif or.png file .

Never seen that happen before, in theory cities cannot be generated on monster lairs so it must be a new bug then.
Which version was it, CoM or CP?

It was the version that GoG sells 1.03.01. I haven't applied the community update patch --is that CoM?

1.3.1 is the 26 years old original. It had a legendary amount of bugs.
Community patch aka 1.52 is the current latest version of the original game. It's a collection of bugfixes and a few Ai improvements but no changes to gameplay beyond what's necessary to fix bugs.
Caster of Magic is a complete overhaul of gameplay, it offers new units, new spells, more game balance, vastly improved AI and so on : http://seravy.x10.mx/CasterofMagic/CASTEROFMAGIC.HTML

Yes, this can happen in the (patched) original. On the bright side, you can think of this as your city also being defended by monsters that an opponent has to get through before they get to you; or as an extra lair which opponents who aren't at war with you won't claim for themselves.

PS: Around the Web you can find a variety of 'enhanced' versions of MoM. They all claim to be 'enhanced' and some diminish rather than enhance the game. Ditto for 'original' versions. I've never actually seen an 'original & unpatched' version on the Web.
