command ceks and "fleeing"

[Bumpasses]

soooooo
I just failed a command check due to massive casualties
i can run away 0", and don't have to turn around....
so my unit stay's were it's at.....cowering
and really only lose's it's activation ...no actual running away
("he boldly ran away")
that correct?

Here are the rules for the Core Rule Book on fleeing (p. 83):

A fleeing model must run during its activation. It is not required to move the full distance of its run, however, and it can even run 0 ˝ if desired.

You don't just lose your activation, you lose the ability to take actions of any kind, such as free strikes, and in SR5, you probably won't count as contesting or holding anything.

They pretty much become just speedbumps at that time. Can't do anything except sit there scared till they pass a CMD check.

Much better than the whole unit running away...i likes.

The real question is this: Where was Lord Rockbottom?

Agree wholeheartedly.
I want to lose a game because my opponent killed my figs.
I don't want to lose a game because I rolled a 12 at "the wrong moment" and an entire unit decided they wanted to go home and cry under their beds.
