Unit stuck and cannot move

For several turns now US 2nd Tank can only move 1 hex with only 1 or two choices. The unit is in Algeria. I tried several ideas to free it loose, but there it sits for many turns now.

If you want, I can send a save game file as soon as you tell me where to find it.

Thanks!

Bad Supply ?

Don't think so - sure looks like a bug. Some turns it can move 1 hex south, others turns one hex south or north. Never east or west.

screenshot with unit highlighted would be a help, what is the units supply level? is there a leader near? what is the terrain you are trying to move into? is it a neutral country?

Dear sPzAbt653,

I am an idiot. It seems it may have been supply after all. I remind myself of that commercial where the candidate for a job keeps pronouncing the French formal name Du Ma' as Dumbass. I am the latter here. Sorry guys.

Not an idiot, just missing something obvious due to everything else going on.
I've found that after playing quite a bit, keeping an eye on unit supply, and hitting the 'S' key every now and then, become second nature and part of playing. I bet you become the same way soon [:)]
