I have units which ended their turn on shipboard. THe next turn they begin deployed on the Batlic Sea unable to move.

What led to this was railing to leningrad port, going to ship mode without detraining. This showed the units reaching Riga. But when the move was ordered, the units stopped midway in ship mode. I surmise that the movement path did not allow for detraining before getting on ships, but in execution the MP's were consumed.

I have attached move where the units are at sea on ships. Presumably if you advance the turn it will repeat the stranded condition. I have the beginning of the move also that I can send before the troops are railed.

There was several fixes dealing with units in the sea.

Pick up a division in Viborg, rail it to Leningrad. Go directly to ship mode (F3) and pick it up again. It will light up Riga and show you can get there with 12 MP's to spare. Now move and it will be stranded on ships in the Baltic half-way. Advance turn and it will be stranded off ships in the Baltic.

Nah, they're Russians. I have one game where I'm shamelessly playing the Russians against the AI without a handicap. When Finland surrendered in 1/42, these guys needed to be trasferred to the front just beyond Riga.
