Hey everyone I am currently on my third play through of Oblivion and I never encountered a game-changing bug until now. I am on the Defense of Bruma (rounded up help from everywhere but Skingrad because I cant seem to visit the count). I broke the news to the Countess but when she walked over to the Chapel, Martin is not there. Once I talk to her and start the mission, I head outside and go to the battlefield. Eventually all the help I rounded up runs down, but Martin never shows up to give his pep rally. So I just stand there awkwardly staring at the gate. Unfortunately, my last save was the autosave exiting the chapel. The last saves I have before that are in the middle of the quest where I retrieve the armor for Martin. So I cannot really remember how this part went down...do I have to do something else...or am I screwed and need to reload my last save?

Btw, I am on the Xbox 360...replaying Oblivion to get the achievements for my new profile. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Try fast travelling to the spot or wait 24 game hours and see if Martin shows up. Unfortunately those are the only ideas I can think of.
