In the Civ4 Vanilla DG2, we have a bug. If the Keshik (Combat and Formation promotion) charge the Longbowman (City Defense Promotion) over two full tiles, the last tile crossing a river - the odds are 67 % of success.
When we move same unit up to the river, step by step, the attack odds are reduced to 29.3 %. My theory is that the river penalty is not added if the attack is conducted from a tile where there is no river.

Some players blame it on the "charge", I blame it on the bug.

Please investigate our demogame (1260 AD save), and you will see this paradox. I would like to have a ruling by Paradox programmers on this issue, possible also a mini-patch.

Best regards
