Default Re: Flying units attacking rear ?

I disagree.

I think the greatest chance to get a unit to attack the rear is to place the unit in the right spot of the battle field.

For example, if you place your ice devil in the back-most and middle position, it will attack whatever units are in the middle of the battlefield.

I believe flying works exactly like running except that there is no movement graphics, so just like running, if you run into the enemy before you get to the desired target, you will attack those units

r = rearmost unit
i = ice devil
A = army

r
r-----------A--------i
r

The ice devil will attack the army in the above graph

r-----------------------i
r-----------A
r

The ice devil will attack rearmost because the army is not in the way.

This is my hypothesis (educated guess).
