Hello, playing as Alexander around 850 AD. I've noticed that none of my units experience any combat modifiers at all. This includes tile terrain, river penalty, promotions, flanking, and fortification modifiers. I didn't catch it right away because I thought at first that the Companion Cavalry's "No defensive bonuses" was a two-way street. I will try to find a save file that predates this bug and post it later tonight.
 
My mistake - perhaps this is a design eccentricity instead of a bug. Cities and non-combat units seem to experience no combat modifiers ever, despite cases when perhaps they should, such as a city being surrounded (flanking bonus), attacking a city across a river (river penalty), or a ranged unit bombarding enemy workers (open terrain penalty).

Please let me know if cities are supposed to experience these modifiers and this is a bug, not a feature.
