Default Re: Questions about orders on "recruit army" for pretenders

All great stuff here, Endoperez has written a very useful tome, just wanted to say:

1. Endoperez: "Hold & Attack" makes them attack after *two* turns (not: three) unless I am gravely mistaken
2. Retreat is also very useful for your sneaking troops who just just be spying or annoying and who would get slaughtered when the enemy discovers them. Put them way in the back and set to retreat, or fire and flee if they can.
Also useful for pillagers and other annoying troops you send out into your enemy's territory who, when the avenging hand returns, would otherwise get wiped out. The enemy might see "This province contains about 20 units, mostly composed of (satyrs)(dryads)(raptors)(whatever)" and thinks: mincemeat, gathers and sends in a nice force... and you just run away.
