I do not know if a save is needed, but I would appreciate one.

Way back in December, I found a similar issue in China.

No ZOC in China

The bug was not reproducible on others' systems, so I just ignored it and stopped my units where they should have stopped.
When I saw it again in Poland with the new version, I just figured my idiosyncratic bug was back and enforced the movement rules on myself.

Since it has now appeared on another system, maybe a new bug hunt is in order?

I think I'm one of the few people that actually likes to play with both Construction Engineers and Combat Engineers options. I just like the tradeoffs.
Could there be some odd interaction with optional rules choices here? I can post a screenshot of my normal rules choices, if it would help.

It's a bug. For some reason, some Polish units don't have a ZOC, where they should have one.

f.e.: I can move a German INF around the Polish army to Gdynia. However, I can't move a German unit into the hex between the Polish CAV and Lodz if I start from the south, but I can do that move from the north. Strange behaviour...

I've reported it, so it can be investigated.
