Okay I am sure we touched on this before in a thread you started about suppresion or some such. If you stop thinking of it as a game & think of what its trying to model you could answer this yourself.

What do you think might effect a units morale, rout rally status?

I am pretty sure they are going tio say its all interlinked & many diffrent things can effect the outcome. Nearly everything in the game is like this & worrying about it does not make you a better player. All you have to do is think of the situation in real terms to decide if its a good or bad idea. Its what makes the game generaly units behave in a realistic maner.

So thought yet what could effect rout rally?
Just a couple
No one in sight or being encircled
Being fired on recently or not.
Cover, building or trench vs open.
Seeing your buddies perform well or getting decimated.
etc etc.

As normal with this game you can only guess at how they will perform on occasion odd things happen. You can normaly explain these away by thinking of the situation & just what happened.
Example of a at first looks strange rally situation, a unit inexplicably recovers from rout & indeed so do other routing units acompanying it.
That would be some fool being all heroic then & saying what the hell, now if he actually killed someone the other runners who witness this suddenly get behind him.
In this case one man made a diffrence & created a stand.
