Default Re: Stupid flying units getting killed makes me angry

I'm with Norfleet.

Also, the argument is from a perspective that is a way too literal interpretation of the game mechanics. If pursuers never were placed in front of fleeing units, the pursued would never fight back. Just because the game system uses that as an abstract mechanic to represent the chance of a unit being cut off and fighting, does not make the AI "dumb". It just means you're taking the situation too literally. The existing AI is fine - it's just an abstract representation.
