  • withdrawal

    has anyone had a unit withdraw from a losing combat?

    Ive even unpgraded modern units to have the trait, but I've never seen a unit do this? Is this just a known bug or something?

      I've seen it on both sides, my units withdrawing and AI units withdrawing.

      Not all units have the ability to withdraw and usuaklly it's pretty low, like 10-25% so you won't see it much. Upgrades are only 10% withdrawal per upgrade so iyou'll need to lose a lot of units to actually see it.

        I've played quite a few games by now. Would really think I'd have seen it by now.

          Withdrawl only works when you are attacking because it is an aspect of "flanking".

          I've seen it happen all the time, especially when I play as Persia and use Immortals.
          I keep a record of all my civ games here.

            It only works if you are the attacker.
            In one game when behind in tech, i promoted all units with the withdrawal promotion. I really loved it. I had to attack each unit several times, because it was far better than my own units. But most of the time i would win without loosing a single unit: my cavalry just left combat shortly before it would go down.
