I haven't been on the forum in a while, but last I checked, the Deep Pike bonus for phalanx units is disabled by Stream terrain, right? Deep Pike is conditioned on open terrain, which streams specifically say are Not Open.

So why (FoG: Empires export battle) am I seeing this pike getting the Deep Pike bonus of +85 while standing right in a stream?

It would appear that deep pike IMPACT POA needs open ground, but MELEE POA only requires not disrupted or disordered.

As pompeytheflatulent points out, that only applies to Impact, not Melee.

Gah, that's what I get for not playing the game regularly for two months. I forget everying.

Thanks, makes sense now.
