V 1.2.1.6 (and earlier).

Units forced to retreat may find a river to their
backs. The rear rank of a deployed formation usually
crosses but the front rank gets stuck so the whole
division becomes trapped.

What then happens is that the division fights on to
the last man which holds up the enemy attemping to
follow up.

This also happens when only the outer portion of the
division gets trapped.

This is a frequent occurence in the Lutzen scenario
where Ney's corp can be defeated yet hold up
significant portions of the allied army.

Suggested solution - eliminate units which cannot
escape if enemy move into contact.

(obviously if only a small part is trapped then nly
this part should be eliminated).
