It is simply totally goof-ball that a ship with movement 10 (5 in tactical) can't ever retreat from a battle with a ship of movement 6 (3 in tactical). A less-than-perfect retreat system is better than none. Make it optional, so that those who hate the idea can opt out.
Here Here, I fully second this dmm - if anyone thinks about it logically, the game should use a floating combat map, if it did, no way would a speed 2 dreadnought ever be able to stop a speed 6 destroyer should the destroyer want to run away - this has got to be correct, the dreadnought would then have to rely on superior weight of metal to hit the ship before it got out of range, long range firepower (anti drive missiles) or just pinning the destroyer into defending a target it cannot disengage from - this would then increase the importance of fast screening vessels to perform this role and add to the strategic considerations of the game - roll it on as an option please
