This is to prevent situations like this: a player attacks another, uses magic, and then pays them off. Then they attack again, use magic, and pay them off. I think the explanation is clear.

Hmm, but why is there such unfairness towards the "hit and run" tactic? It's a perfectly established strategy. Some players build their entire game around it. It feels like a significant restriction on gameplay options.
