Vamping Up Retreats

Giving an automatic retreat on a wound-reaction fall is mostly an attempt to create a consistent effect on a wounded figure, regardless of whether or not they are adjacent to a hazard.

That aside, what about SJ's Hexagram amendments that change who chooses where the figure retreats to? That is a huge changefrom the retreat rules on ITL 118.

Skarg, earlier you referred to an original edition rule that you might fall if you had no hex to retreat into. I remember that, too, but can't find it in my original Advanced Melee. Would you be able to share where that is? Was it actually a holdover from the original Wizard microgame?
