Blockage

I enjoy Civilization 6. I really do. I downloaded the Rise and Fall expansion a week or so ago, and that made it even better. But...,

In my current game, I have a Warrior unit which has just completed some R&R after cleaning out a barbarian outpost. The tile he's on has mountains to the north and ocean cliffs to the south and east; even though I have Shipbuilding, he can't move out onto the water, because of the cliffs. Immediately to his west is a Zulu Scout, blocking the only way he could move by land. Moving in that direction would trigger war with the Zulus, which I (playing as Harald Hardrada) really don't want to do.

The game refuses to let me have the Warrior stand pat. It will not let me end turn. It insists that he *absolutely must* move.

This happens from time to time, for reasons I've yet to discover. Usually I just move to an adjacent tile and immediately move back. *I can't do that!*

I called up the menu, hit Quick Save and then Exit to Desktop. If it still won't let me end turn when I resume play, I'll have to start over. (Not too big a deal; Harald isn't one of my favorite Leaders, but I hit "Random Leader" in the opening menu and felt obliged to go along with the choice.)

It's a good game, but if I still had my winter fur I'd be tearing it out at this point.
