Default Battle: coloured lines under unit icon

OK,I've read the manual, the various FAQs and sticky threads and searched this forum.

However, I've not managed to find the answer to my question:

In the battle display, when selecting an unit there are coloured lines under the unit icon.
What do those mean?

I assume that they refer to damage, fatigue, poison etc. But am not sure which colour means what.

Anyone care to enlighten me or to refer me to the relevant thread?

Thanks in advance.

The red line is for hit points loss; when it is all the way to the right, you have lost all your hit points and you die.
The blue line is for fatigue. I don't know if there is a limit, but at 100 fatigue you are unconscious, and at 200 you lose hit points.
The green line is for poison, if I understand correctly, it's the hit points that you will lose to poison in the following turns.

Thanks a lot for this very fast and useful reply.

No line for morale loss then?

Greater than 200 fatigue and you lose hit points? Does that mean a mage who casts a 700 fatigue battle enchantment, for example, is sacrificing himself?

Not that I have seen. I think it would be a useful addition.

Hmm... I distinctively recall Kristoffer said that at Fatigue > 200, the unit dies...
