Editing Retreat

A hero may retreat from combat anytime it is his turn. Players cannot retreat if the hero is defending in a [[siege]] (unless he is in a [[Stronghold]] that has an [[Escape Tunnel]]) or fighting against an enemy hero wielding the [[Shackles of War]]. The hero will reappear in the [[Tavern]] ready for immediate re-recruiting and retain all artifacts but lose all armies.

'''Note:''' Even if your hero inflicted serious losses to the opponent, if you retreat from combat no [[experience]] will be gained from the battle.

Retreating (or [[surrender]]ing) is a good idea
* When defeat is imminent.
* As a means to travel to a distant town, to be re-recruited there, however this is tactically unsound and costs 2500 gold (and the hero's current armies).
* To preserve artifacts which will otherwise fall into an enemy hero's hands.
* To preserve a powerful hero with strong stats, spells, or high level.
