In combat, when many LCUs participate in a fight,many times you can see during combat animations, that one random LCU bears the brunt of combat. However, does it work the same during retreats, when your stack loses a battle with odds 2:1 or higher, and all units are forced to retreat to a different hex?
It seems to me that during forced retreats, losses are AVERAGED AMONG ALL retreating LCUs in the stack, though I have never compared units pre- and post battle.

During battles single units can take exceptional losses, both on the offense and defense. Like you say, during a retreat it's usually spread out over all units in the stack. I usually expect 1/3 of the unit's TOE to be lost during a forced retreat.
