AI breaks 1UPT rule.

Yes, but there's a penalty.
See: Amphibious promotion for melee units "Eliminates combat penalty for attacking from the sea or over a river".

You can move more than one tile while you are embarked, just saying.

To people that says it was an embark attack.
Please try to explain it away because if it was an embark attack, it would be attacking as transport ship graphic.
Problem with your waving it away as embark attack is that I actually bothered to watch teh action when It's not my turn. I watched the frakkin landship move from hex 1 to hex 2 to hex 3 and finally hex 4 and attack on same hex where my Mech infantry is and vulture the city out from me.
I'm still too angry to log onto civ 5 maybe tomorrow hope the autosave isn't deleted by then cuz I saved one turn later.

... and I only see a couple of screenies. There are autosaves, quicksaves, normal saves. I mean how hard could it be. But as long as there is a save, the only thing we can do is guess and the two most prominent guesses has already been put on the table, either the embarked unit or the invisible unit (or a combination of the two). Sure it can be a bug, but even if it is a bug, a save would be good.
It's a timing issue as well as how we observe the AI move units may not be how the turns are being played. Human players can also break 1UP when a 2nd unit pops in a city with a unit already in place. You just can't hit next turn until you move your unit.
This is more like the bending of 1UPT.

If you don't believe him, why even post in this thread? To call him a liar?
The thing here is that the Human can under no circumstances ever attack a city with a melee unit that is already surrounded by 6 melee units. It is impossible to attack a city in one turn with 7 Pikemen, and the AI in this situation did basically that.

I've seen the AI attack through a unit when a player couldn't. Like I said, it's still 1UPT, it's just different rules than us. They still end with 1UPT, they're just allowed to attack if the end result will be 1UPT (while human players risk the random number generator preventing them from winning).

I have not called anyone a liar, but still a save is better than a just a screenshot (since the cause of this bug or whatever can be many).
OP apparently find the time to take screenshots before and after this buggy attack, but did not come up with the idea that a save could be a good things to have, so the bug can be tracked down.
