 ==Retreat Penalty==
-Each time an attempt is made to retreat within a short period of time, an additional attack penalty is added. This is to prevent endless ranged attacks on a person who is attempting to close to melee. Eventually the penalties will become so severe that landing a hit is impossible. This encourages use of retreating to get out of combat rather than mechanics abuse within combat.
+Retreating repeatedly within a short period imposes an accumulating offensive penalty, discouraging repeated ranged attacks while an opponent attempts to close to melee. The penalty affects both melee and ranged attacks.

			Success depends a great deal on [[hindrance]] and [[encumbrance]] as well as the [[agility]] and [[reflex]] stats.

			==Successful Messaging==

			>retreat
			You retreat back to pole range.

			>retreat
			You retreat from combat.

			==Unsuccessful Messaging==

			You try to back away from a ship's rat but are unable to get away!
			Roundtime: 3 secs.

			==Retreat Penalty==
			Each time an attempt is made to retreat within a short period of time, an additional attack penalty is added. This is to prevent endless ranged attacks on a person who is attempting to close to melee. Eventually the penalties will become so severe that landing a hit is impossible. This encourages use of retreating to get out of combat rather than mechanics abuse within combat.

			Use the [[assess command]] to check if you have a retreat penalty. If yes then you'll see ''You appear to be having difficulty targeting melee and ranged attacks.'' message.
