Default Re: Retreating and dying. Is this a bug or my ignorance ?

Did they retreat or flee?
There is a difference. Retreat (as a scripted action) usually works as long as there is someplace to retreat to. But fleeing (routing) a battle is a panic. The direction of the fleeing is randomly chosen. Sometimes to a province they own and sometimes not.
IIRC
