Look at the hex two hexes north east of Barcelona (Spain), next to France. Try to move an axis unit to these hex from the hex in left. The program calls the collapse of Vichy, I don“t know why. Here is the saved game, hotseatmode, 1.4.1.0 beta version.

Apparently the program wants to use the railroad from Vichy into Spain to move the MECH division. That gives the same number of movement points. So it has something to do with you using both Motorised Movement Points and Railway movement bonus while you are on the border of Vichy France fighting the Allies.

Talking about possibilities in MWIF and coincidences at the same time. An obscure but important bug. Thanks for catching this one.

You should get a warning about the collapse. Then you should be able to avoid the collapse by using Ctrl-Left Click to specify a precise path for the land unit so it doesn't enter Vichy France.

That's a good work around...
