Re: A newbie asks...
No benefit to troops being near their commanders.
A commander with the Standard ability gives morale bonuses to troops near him, but it doesn't matter if they're in a squad he commands or not. Just if they're in the Standards AoE.
Large amounts of weak PD dying/routing can hit the 75% limit causing the whole army to rout automatically. Except berserkers, etc.
From the manual, 50% overall casualties causes morale checks every turn from then on.
Normally a squad only checks morale if they take "heavy losses", a squad under 5 members check morale if they take any damage.
