it looks more like you don't have the stats/skills to retreat more than retreat sucking.

so it telling my I did retreat, and I'm still at melee is correct?.. I would expect something like:
you fail to retreat, and a warrior is still at melee range. |

Check your HANGBACK settings, its always possible that they're set to melee.

think of it as percentages. IIRC, you can retreat and still be at the range that puts you at melee.
IE:
melee: 1-10
pole: 11-25
pilum: 26-60
missile: 61-100
so if you retreated from 1 to 8, that would still put you at melee. also, i think if something finally does reach melee on you, you stop trying to retreat until you try again.

Hangback does indeed effect your retreat....its supposed to keep you from retreating past that point. But like Yaru says, stats/skills are very important too.
