Is there a way to retreat in battle

Is there a way to retreat and run away in a battle that is going badly. I noticed that in Brads vids the AI can have the enemy do it. If this is true, we should have the same option to retreat in shame but live to fight again.

Yes, but I think it only works with channelers and champions. Just move to the opening in the back of your line and move off the board

More specifically, you have to move into the glowy cloud sections.

I'd like to see a "retreat" option added to the battle screen so that you could fight, auto-resolve, or retreat. Of course there would have to be some sort of penalty so that it's not a "free" option (maybe all units lose hitpoints equal to 50% of their maximum health, so that if a unit is below 50%, it'll be killed).

careful when you retreat; i lost two champions because their morale dropped to the point that i was unable to move them because everyone else had retreated before them
