Default Re: Now this is far more annoying than paralysis autokill

I find myself a lot more sympathetic to Yossar's position than to Peter's.

I think it doesn't take long playing the game to realize that retreating is only to adjacent friendly provinces. If you fly in and retreat...which does go into effect at turn 50...you have nowhere to retreat to. And I don't really recall very many people in the patch 2.08 discussion who opposed this result. Why can't you fly back? We'll call it "weariness" rather than fatigue if it makes you feel better.

I've encountered the same problem Yossar is experiencing. Berserk units that have to keep fighting and aren't able to retreat. Fighting against other berserk units that are still fighting and not able to retreat. I just about think if they're going to be autokilled maybe they should unberserk so that they have a chance to flee. It's not as if they are immobile or paralyzed or anything. And in the example given they don't appear to have flown into the middle of enemy territory with nowhere to flee to.
