Default Re: Retreating??

It does seem strangely odd to have the old "table edge of doom" showing up in a computer game? I really laughed at all the little dots chasing a hostile dot into the corner, from whence it had no place to go.

I would suggest that if one side has superior tactical speed, there should be an option to break off the engagement after any single round of combat. Indeed, it should be a pre-combat option as well. "Tactical" "Strategic" or "Avoid Combat". If the unit avoids combat it is placed in a nearby square.

Also, is there a possibility of doing away with the whole "Strategic" combat view. What good does it do and I'm sure the AI isn't impressed by the little dots either...
