Default Re: Fort Retreat Survival --> call for discussion

Sure, if you want to take the chance that nothing's teleporting into/attacking the provinces around your fort...

...and if you've got somewhere to retreat to...

...If there's still somewhere to retreat to...

...Annihilation of his fort defenders can happen when there is no avenue of retreat.

Following that line of reasoning, why then can't a defender freely reinforce/evacuate an unsurrounded fortress?

Edit @Sombre: It just seems grossly unthematic to me, and an interesting point of discussion.

Because during the battle there is chaos and confusion, mostly clustered around the gates. And afterwards, the invaders are busy looting the city. Either way no one notices a few stragglers fleeing.

During the siege, the attackers are spread out camped around the castle, watching for attacks and reinforcements.
