LF Can't Engage - Evading

Post by Morbio »

I've encountered a situation in a couple of games today where LF attack LF (36% win, 36% lose chance) and the LF evades. Certainly before this release they would always fight if the defenders chance was at least equal.

It's getting very frustrating that LF can't seem to attack anything.

I think the whole evading situation with LF and Cavalry needs looking at. As well as the fact that LH can never catch LF.

LF is not really an attacking type of unit. They are supposed to stand back hurl missiles and insults and then bugger off when something comes chasing after them. I find that generally javelin armed LF will stand, no guarantees though. Only time I find it annoying is in armies with lots of LF, since they dodge about shooting you from behind etc and you cant't pin them down.
Note, I have managed to catch some LF that had a fortified camp behind them, guess like on the TT game camps are impassible terrain so if you can back them up to the wall they are yours for the slaughter.

LF will generally evade LF with impact weapons, otherwise they usually stand. Keith
