Prophetizing during siege

Retreating from a stormed castle is not necessary the same as retreating from break siege. The manuel specifically said that retreating from break siege will kill you. Is there not true?

The manual is wrong. The only time you die from retreating is if there are no friendly provinces or if it's an assassination attempt.

Mistake of the manual or of the game mechanics?

Edi,

Thanks for the clarification.

BTW thanks also for the Dom database.

> Mistake of the manual or of the game mechanics?

Initially this would have been a mechanic bu, since we wanted the manual to be correct.
Now it is a manual mistake, since there are others and the manual is incorrect anyways, and we don't want the game to have bugs

If it's documented it's not a bug, it's a feature

It seemed counterintuitive to me (I thought the stormed castle is sorrounded by the enemy) but if you say it's ok, oh it's ok for me

I'd definitely prefer this to work as you originally intended, with retreat impossible from castle storming and breaking siege battles.

It doesn't bug me a huge amount to have it work this way, but it's definitely counter-intuitive, yar.
