She might have survived anyway but it turned into a long battle because the battle set-up was so stupid. What happened here was it was a seige-breaker. I put elephants front and center. I had light infantry way off to the right and a touch back from the front. However, when the battle started, the light infantry and elephants were intermixed at the front. With infantry blocking the elephants. They got just inside the gate but then panicked. So a group of my infantry, trying to flee, continued to block my elephants. And my elephants blocked the fleeing infantry. Most of the infantry had to die before the elephants could get by to continue the attack.
And in the mean-time my goddess died of poisoning... Stupid, stupid game!!! Is it a bug? Or something I should have anticipated?

Certainly could have anticipated it. Why'd you have your goddess cast Invulnerability? Anyway, casting a personal armor buff is reasonably high priority if the enemy is far enough away that you can't hit with offensive spells. So you should script a different armor buff to avoid that if that's a potential issue.
