Rivers and Rubber Boats:

I recall reading somewhere that, if a battle map has a wide river, infantry will automatically carry rubber boats to cross them. I'm playing a PBEM game with a wide river between my troops and one set of victory hexes, yet none of my infantry units have rubber boats. :confused:

Advice?

All of the posts I found stated that if there is even a single wide river hex on the map that inf units should have rafts unless the default was changed in the editor to no rafts. Is this a randomly generated game or one that the other guy set up and maybe didn't give raft availability?

I remember that in SP1, only engineers carry rubber boats, not the general infantry...

The map was randomly generated, as far as I know. Perhaps the river isn't deep enough. I've found that cavalry can ford the river in a two turn sequence.
