Please, question for Slitherine staff : what means exactly the retreatdirection parameter of units ? Is it the direction of retreat (1,2,3,4,5,6 sor hex sides) or is it the number of hex the retreating unit goes during battle ?

If retreatdirection = side of hex, could you say what are the designed sides for each numer : 1,2,3,4,5,6 ?
(i.e : 1 = top side of hexagone, etc)

This is the direction a unit will usually head to if routing and it has a choice. The AI resets these at the start of a new battle so there is no point modifying this.

Ok, I see. Just for intellectual interest, not to modify: could you say whay direction is 1, what is 2,etc ?(1 = north of hexagone, 4= south,etc ?)
