Default Re: List of known issues

There are still trouble with retreats from assassinations:

Since the last patch or so, commanders which are set to "retreat" are supposed to ignore this order in case of a fight that origins in an assassination attempt, right?

However, they still retreat from assassination by "indy assassines", which can occure as random event.

It's highly annoying to loose a HoF commander that way, especially if it's heroic Jotun who would have squashed a knife-wielding human assassine flat...

Or is it the game engines way to punish players who use commanders to "feign attacks" to get clear picture of enemy forces ?
