RTW - Rallying Troops

[GottMitUns]

weird, it works every single time for me. The rallied units might be fairly far away but they stop routing and will come back and fight if so commanded.

Personally I find the 'Rally Troops' ( I dont know about an F command, I just use the little horn pic in the lower right corner ) only works if your unit is getting its arse kicked, and starts flashing; it can hold that unit together long enough to get another unit into that fight so you can withdraw the bashed unit in good form.

Once they start running its all over.

Although it doesn't work every time for me, I can often (75%+/-) stop routing troops using the rally command too.

Best thing though is to not get them in a situation where they are likely to flee in the first place.

True, but sometimes it's unavoidable

Anyway, thanks all for the advice

I´ve noticed that rallying isn´t as effective in RTW as it is in MTW. In MTW I had more than once turned the tide by rallying my fleeing army (and I´ve got my own back whipped by rallied enemies, too, me being way too rash), but that´s hardly ever happened in RTW.
