1 movement sea unit

I am working on an anti-ship mine. Everything works fine, but I have given it a movement rate of 1 (they sort of drift around and don't get too far from port). However, when I play the game, they have a movement rate of 3? Any hints?

I was thinking maybe there is something in the Civ program that says all seas units must be able to move 3.

My brother had the same problem (only with 0 movement). Maybe you should try the in-game editor. If you don't have that, I don't know what you can do.

Thanks, Kira. Actually, I figured it out. I have the lighthouse and Magellan's expedition. Everyone beside me can only move 1.

Speaking of movement 0 though, I have a unit that is only used to defend cities (like a pillbox). It works great except that, since it cannot move, you are not informed that it is finished. If you are not careful, you end up with 3 in a city, without even knowing it.

Have you given your unit an attack value?
I think that the game informs of any non-combat (attack=0) units. A 0-movement unit should not need attacking power either.
