Quote[/b] ]Yeah sure press the route button. But what happens when they don't stop?

I've done that several times and the calvary simply high-tails it out of the battlefield.

And yes I have tried pressing the rally button but wasn't on at the time.

To disengage units try CTRL + W to Withdraw followed by Halt. They will run in the opposite direction for a bit but not in a panic as they do when you order them to rout. You have a much better chance of them not running off the field that way. Note if their morale is low when you order them to withdraw then they might auto-rout on you, but then you are just back to where you were before I gave you this tip http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-smile.gif

Re: withdrawing units using CTRL + W :

Thanks for those tips on my tip http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/bigthumb.gif I had noticed that the unit sometimes ran off in an odd direction but did not know why until now. Seems it heads toward the edge of the map where your army originally deployed when you first landed on the battle map. Depending upon your orientation later in the battle, that is usually not a good direction for your unit to run http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-stunned.gif
