Wondering if it has anything to do with this patch change?
•Defender units that are destroyed before they can retreat will now output a 'Shattered' message to better indicate halved losses for the attacker (Taxman66).

I'm unfortunately not able to repeat this, is it generally repeatable with exact conditions, or happens every once in a while kind of thing?

Every once and a while. I think I've only seen it with river gunboats on the Mississippi like in the video...

I recently played single-player, and got this.
Frankly, not a big-deal. The enemy retreats. I'm shattered everyday in life and retreat!

It actually is a big deal as I've discovered working on my mod. Shattering and retreating are two different things. As you have naval battles in that area the confederate ships just ping pong back and forth and back and forth it is ridiculous and messes up the naval conflict around New Orleans...
...but your joke is funny! Hehe

This should be fixed now for the next update, and as far as I can tell it was just a false message, e.g. the retreats are still happening as they should, just a false 'SHATTERED' every once in a while.

Ah ok great I wasn't sure as I had some situations with several retreats back and forth! Thanks!

Just to update everyone we discovered that ships set at strength 5 like gunboats would retreat even if there was no damage and Hubert has fixed this also. Thanks Hubert!
