I will come back in a bit but that wasnt my assumption you said there were alternatives to teleport for making an escape and I was asking if they were just more magic doing something nobody else could do. (or that is what I meant)
I am in a bit of a how can we make escaping work better mode at the moment and there are a number of mechanisms already bouncing around in 4e like warlord moves that let the entire party charge or shift and move for instance that could gather the party on his turn if they were all 30 or something feet or less from where he is. We have some silent communication things some magic some not that will not tell the enemy what we are up to and so on.
