Divisions retreating with org remaining

[QuinnMallory]

Recently when (unsuccessfully) trying to Tread the Narrow Path, I had my units retreat from a (heavily fortified) border tile while they still had significant org and the battle was at 30 or so, several times. Does this have to do with front lines? General traits? Would replacing with a fallback line stop it from happening?

Were those divisions reinforcing the front in time? If the divisions that are actually fighting run out of org before other divisions move out of the reserves they all retreat. That's why org first is such a great general skill and why radio is such an important tech.

OK, didn't know that. Thanks for the explanation! Is there a manual for this game, or a wiki page on combat, that explains stuff like this?
