hi

i recently experienced very strange behaviour of my pretender god.

i played with the moloch leading abysia. he was carrying all the great artifacts (unqeunched sword, aegis, amon hotep, robe of calius, boots of calius, chalice and krupps bracers). he could fight hordes of undead (i was fighting ermor) without even losing a single hit point! he always fought alone; no other units, no other commanders.

but here comes the weirdness: in a really large battle (my moloch against 1153 undead) he routed, after having killed 1136 undead! there were no friendly provinces nearby, so my poor moloch died. i was quite upset about this.

i reviewed the decisive battle many times. the moloch has not lost a single hit point, and his morale also was at maximum (30).

i don't understand this behaviour. does this make sense to anyone of you?

[edit: another detail: i think the unquenched sword made him go berserk. does this have any effect on his behaviour? i thought berserk would make a unit *not* rout???]
