Problem with hex 180, 89

There is a Fort hex near Kiev. I moved the German 1st PzKrps in that hex about four turns ago. It is not cut off. In fact, other units have advanced ahead of 1. PzK.
Problem: 1.PzK if frozen in place. No Action Points. Even the unit information over to the right of the computer screen has the abbreviation "Frzn" to indicate that it is frozen.
What on Earth could freeze an entire panzerkorps for a whole month?
Is this a bug?
Thanks!

I think it is a "Kiev is taken" event firing long after the real event occured. It should be fixed in the patch, I hope. Saw it myself in a Axis game I was playing the other night. I will see if I can find a save game to send the developers.
It is a bug, and it can happen to multiple units around Kiev.

Thanks for sending something to the developer for fixing!
It's funny to see that huge PzK sit there turn after turn on vacation! There must be some very nice Ukrainian girls in that hex!

While waiting for the event to wear off (or the patch), why not open the land_units.csv in the save file, locate the unit in question and simply write a new location (hex) for it? It's the 2 fields immediately following the unit designation. Just be careful not to add any space in the formulas; just change the hex coordinates.

That is a great idea, Sir Ux. Thanks.

Hopefully I'll be able to redo those events for the patch.
