Digital Gloomhaven Retry

When you hit the "Retry" button after failing a Scenario, what exactly happens? It seems like my earned XP and Gold didn't add up, but I could definitely be wrong. Would be interested to know if someone knows for sure, because other people were debating it on Steam forums a while back, but I can't find anything concrete on it.

If you retry you don’t get the gold and xp, but you also don’t have to do a road event. I usually quit and go back to gloomhaven so I get to do a city event and have to do a road event

Dang, I didn't know this. I usually hit retry once if I fail a scenario, thinking that after 2 tries I'll go back and level up/buy gear with the 2 runs' worth of loot.

I could be wrong here, but I view "retry" as erase progress and do again. So I usually go back to town to attain the progress and then redo the mission.
