problem with recon movement

Hello,
several times I have experienced problem with recon unit movement. Normally recon unit should be able move 3 times in 1 turn (unless uses all its movement or stops on the river) but sometimes when I move the unit let's say 1/3 of its movement limit it stops and don't want to move again even though the green arrow (showing that unit can still be moved) is next to the unit symbol. Is that a bug or there are other factors that enable recon further movement- like stopping in the forest or revealing enemy unit ? I encouter this problem in basic scenarios as well and grand campains.
Thank in advance for help

This is very common. I think it happens when the unit has at least one movement point left, but when movement to any adjacent hex would cost more than the number of movement points remaining, or is impossible for some other reason (another unit there, impassable terrain, etc.).

It's due to the terrain you moved through and the weather.

Recon units do not automatically get to move 3 times.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind next time ;). The green arrow was misleading, that's why I thought it was a bug.
