Can a retreating unit end its retreat on a steep ridge or other rough terrain, or pass through rocks?
The rulebook's retreat section says terrain has no effect on retreats, and posters agree the same holds in scenario 11.

Yes. Terrain has no effect on retreat moves, so a retreating unit can stop on a steep ridge or rough terrain, and can pass through rocks or ruins without stopping there. Impassable terrain and occupied hexes still cannot be entered, and only Snowspeeders may retreat onto a crevasse.
