it's quite frustrating to take more losses, post-enemy routing, to friendly fire than during the main battle. Ie: your 45 crossbowmen fire a huge cloud of bolts at the 4-8 fleeing militia that your flying troops have completely surrounded.

Crossbowmen should DEFINITELY not do this unless the target is completely clear, if the target is routing: Crossbowmen simply lack the precision needed to actually strike their targets with reasonable confidence.

Fliers (and cav), on the other hand, should be encouraged to not only pursue enemy routing troops, but perhaps have a command to preferentially pursue routers. I know that's what *I* use light cav for in Medieval: To run down enemies as they flee and KILL THEM ALL!
