Sally No More?

[Hashashiyyin]

for some reason, whenever you exit a battle before you win, no matter how well you've done, it counts as a lose. It sucks because I used to use a stack or two of horse archers to harass enemy stacks before they got to my main army. If you try that now you lose and with it, most of your men.

So there is no more sallying for harassment, only do it if you can wipe out the besiegers....that's a tall order for 4 units besieged by a full stack. Looks like I'm going to need larger garrisons.

i got the impression that sallying wasnt possible any more as well - i had a very similar experience to that you described in you first post and ive never tried sallying since.
