Certainly, fear can win battles... but do you always want your opponent running? Sometimes you want defeat in detail.

As Agartha, or other no-cavalry races, lots of fear is pretty much a guarantee you'll see that army again soon enough, unless you can push forward NOW.

Let's check out the manual - it would be good for me to see the worm in practice with this setup, but I haven't tried it yet, so I'm a paper jockey.

"If the result is a hit, the attacker must make a morale check or abort his attack." Don't pretenders have 30 morale? Not quite 50, but more than enough to continue their attack.

So, the only consequences of being repelled is one point of damage taken by the attacker per attack, but the attack goes through anyways, so the short length shouldn't be a problem on a Wyrm. Besides, the worm attacks fewer times than his regen.

On the other hand, a unit gets a penalty to its defense for being swarmed, and apparently also gets a repel penalty each time it has been attacked, as well.

Correct me if I'm wrong. I haven't tested it.
