Sometimes my units can move 3 tiles in a turn on roads, sometimes just 2, and other times only 1 tile! Why?
This all involves whether or not you are crossing rivers, as well as what technologies you have. Normally, at the start of the game, your units will be able to move 2 tiles on roads for every movement point they have (over non-rivered tiles). However, moving over rivers costs 1 movement, regardless of whether there is a road or not. Once you research Construction, you enable “bridge building”, or the ability to treat roads over rivers as normal road tiles (you don’t actually have to build bridges, it’s automatic). Also, upon researching Engineering, your units will be able to move an extra tile (a total of 3 per movement point) on roads.
