leaders under fire :)

[PawelM]

Ok I go the number wrong. :)
:bow: :)
But does anyone know what is the propability of a leader as a solitary hex occupier and a target to be force into retreat by means of direct fire? I could not find anything on that in the manual. And also I do not recall it ever happening for me but this is just a side line of my bad luck to dice.

Can anyone enlighten me how likely is it in the game to force the leader retrat as above?
Based on my limited experience the propablity must be even lower tha chance of eliminating the leader.

I have found the best way to take on solitary leaders is to direct assault them...........not that I get many chances to do that :-)

Sometime I want to just fend off a soliitary leader so my opponent does not maintain my units in LOS. Andd the leader is the only unit allowing that in some cases. In a situation the assault is feasible no problem. But sometimes they out of range for APs to assault them or I am aware there is a bunch of bad guys behind waiting to hit my assaulting unit. Effectively I would need to sacrify assaulting unit. So direct fire seems the option. But with only 10 percent chance of killing the leader and unkunquantified chance (if any) of retreating the leader I was frustruted waisting my AP trying to fend of a solitary leader after killing his shielding unit....

I think the chances of retreating the leader standing on its own should be higher than they are. i stress retreating not eliminating. I imagine only a handful of individuals like chuck norris or rambo or other superheroes would stand too long when tank and inf platoons are firing at them :)
