For my great joy the LCU arrived next turn, and for my sorrow it has halved its AV by immediately shock attacking a lvl3 fort. Why oh why?

That is not the problem we are talking about Moses. Sometimes I will send 10 units to the same location using the march all button. 8 of them will take the proper route down a trail/road/rr, but one or two of them will, for no reason, go a different route by going to a hex with no movement help at all.

Perhaps it is a different problem but consider this. You set 10 units marching down the road. An enemy unit breaks your movement path causeing your units to seek a different route. (One that goes to bad woods or mountain hexes). But most of your units don't have 60 miles yet. So only the couple that move go into the woods. The others are still on the path you selected. This seems like what is being reported by Castor Troy.

In any event it never hurts to warn players of this problem. And maybe it is something with the follow command. I just like to consider the simple explanations.
