Help needed with the "Flee" command
« on: 26 June 2017, 01:01:09 »
I feel a little stupid asking this, given that I've been playing MegaMek for years, but I don't seem to have a clue how to use the flee command. No matter what I do with the unit or what edge of the map I move it to (Home, opposite, anything) the button remains greyed out. Is there something I'm missing here?

Thanks in advance

I believe a unit has to start the turn on the edge of the board to flee. Not move on to the edge during a turn.
There also might be a game setting that prevents fleeing, I cannot remember.

Yeah move to the edge of the map (should be anywhere) and on next turn during the movement phase can click flee. At least it worked last time I played.
