The Aegis does a death attack, just the same as soul slay. However, a dominions style death attack is nothing more then an absurd amount of damage, namely a base damage of 999. The actual damage will very from this amount based on DRN rolls from both sides.
This leads to several interesting details. Though improbably, it is possible for a DNR roll to decrease this damage to a survivable level. Since it is also simply just a lot of damage, it also means that units with a second forms may be able to survive the attack.
If the a unit took only 15 points of damage while attacking you, it is more likely that they succeeded on the MR check versus the Medusa effect and instead took damage from another effect, such as charged body, which is auto-cast on any unit wearing copper plate.
