I just had something odd happen to me in an SP game. Can anyone explain this?

I had a nicely kitted Devata flying around (boots) and he landed in a pack of winter wolves and ghosts. He had 125 cold resistance and MR of 22, so I figured he was safe. As expected, the cold aura didn't hurt him, neither did the life drain.

Then his Morale dropped to -9 and he fled. With no territories owned adjacent, he died. ???!!!

Yes, ghosts have a Fear +0. I thought this forced morale checks, I didn't think it caused morale to decrease! How does this actually work? Can a squad of ghosts force *any* non beserk/morale-50 unit to retreat???!!!

BTW, this is with CBM 1.94; did CBM do something with fear mechanics?
