查看“撤退”的源代码

A hero may retreat from combat anytime it is his turn. He may also retreat before combat during his [[Tactics Phase]] if such a phase occurs. 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.

{{Fanopinion|
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. 
* 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.
