Default Re: Carrion Woods ideas please


Sounds like Saxon did what is normally the smart thing to do with a single SC in a province: he didn't recruit, didn't buy any PD, so there usually wouldn't have been anything to rout and cause the SC to retreat.

But, at the beginning of the turn, before movement, a carrion beast was auto-generated by his friendly dominion. That single carrion beast was killed, causing his pretender to retreat.

It's one of the frustrating things about Dominions, and sadly I don't expect it to change in Dom3, since troops causing retreat is nominally part of the balancing of SCs.

Hmm - maybe if retreating couldn't be caused by the death of mindless units? A militia event could still cause you to retreat / get you killed, but carrion / undead freespawns, etc, could not.
