:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.

In many games the ranged units like skirms, jaegers etc are just walking/ retreating and not shooting very much. Check out this game where the AI skirmishers mostly just walked and did not shoot as much as they should have.

In this patch, the AI doesn’t really like fighting smartly - it will retreat even with minimal casualties and lose all units in the process of retreating.

Is this related to the new retreat behavior?
