Stream terrain effect bug

Stream hexes appear to negate the + POA for pike/offensive spear who are not fragmented and are above 50%. This occurs whether or not the BG in the stream hex is disordered or not and is incorrect and should be fixed. this especially affects the Granicus scenario although I'm not sure the problem is new in the beta release. BGs in a stream hex do get their correct POA in melee. It is only the impact POA which appears to be affected.

I just played a quick test scenario in v1.7.2 and I got the same result.

It seems ok here. Will set up a test scenario for every possible combat option in stream and work through them. Will post again after testing. Keith

I just tested every combat option and cannot see an issue. Any chance of a screen shot of a specific problem.
Thanks
Keith

Hi Keith,

Just to be clear , the Hypaspist impact in figure 1 should have a +POA for Pike/Spear not fragmented, not a 0 POA as displayed.

In melee the Spear/Pike POAs are correct as shown in figure 2.
