Battle Afflicted Troops?

A Caelum Seraph taskforce was destroyed by PD because all their troops were on Bodyguard; how nice to kill troops worth 800 gold coins with capital PD.

Incidentally, not all units count for the battle rout: for example, a Virtue spamming Ghost Wolves will not rout when her Ghost Wolves are killed. I believe only units brought in at the beginning of the battle matter for rout purposes, but don't quote me on that.
