Post subject:  No Forward retreats

Does everyone know that a defending unit cannot retreat forward?

To do this, only 4 units are needed. Place one directly in front of the defender and three in the rear. So, only 4 units are needed to eliminate a defender. This assume the melee is a success. Also, there are no friendly units adjacent to the defender. Facing the defender is not required, so long as at least one of the four can melee. This does not work on routed units as routed units do not have a "front" in spite of the directional arrow.

I mention this so everyone has an equal understanding. The manual does not spell it out as seen above.
