Serious Bug - When An Ogre with Crushing Blow is next to one of your units, it is allowed to attack any unit you've got.

from Elemental Forums

You can check it out easily, just attack an Ogre or a Bone Ogre, put your tank next to them, and have at least one other squishy target.  They will target the squishy target, even if they are far away.  It happens every time, it only requires one of your own units to be next to the Ogre or Bone Ogre that it DOESN'T want to attack, and a preferred target further away.  It will act like Crushing Blow is a ranged attack and can attack any of your units.

The only one I've got is from a heavily modded game (but I have got the bug on non-modded games too), to find it yourself all you need is a game where you have that Ogre camp that has an Ogre and/or Bone Ogre in it.  Banished Ogres don't work because they don't have the Crushing Blow ability.

You're positive it is not using Hurl Boulder? (Note: I am just spit-balling here, I don't recall which units actually have that skill)

Yes, I am positive it isn't Throw Boulder, because it uses the "Thud" sound that normally accompanies Crushing Blow, and it also says "Crushing Blow" and does a lot more damage than Throw Boulder too.
