Default Re: "Attack Rearmost"

I think the AI "forgets" the command when your units come to close to an enemy unit.

In my Last Ulm game, I had one of the heroes riding together with 10 knights. I placed them on the upper part of the battlefield and gave both the attack rearmost command. What actually happened is, one of the knights came near an enemy unit, and all knights in his squad turned around and attacked. My hero however continued his journey to the back of the battlefield and slaughtered the enemy mages.

Note: Trampling units with attack rearmost will most often trample trough the enemy lines towards the rear, so they seem unaffected by this problem.
