Re: Why didnt my army rout?
Maybe you had most of your units scripted to Guard Commander? Units in Guard Commander are not counted as "in the field" when the game checks if there are any non-routing friendly units left (=if the commanders should retreat).

Re: Why didnt my army rout?
Yeah, that's probably it. I knew this before, but if I think about the battle replay, all non-bodyguards with 50 morale (Iron Dragon) were dead when army routing occured. However, a beserking commander (via Hellsword) cannot hurt) seem to be a safer bet...

I think you can see it in the unit description after they've gone beserk.
Quote:
Even AQs , Tartarians and similiar have "only" 30 morale so in very rare cases they can rout by failing the commander morale throw though it is really extremely rare .

I thought that the different 'special' morale numberss like 30, 50, 99 weren't actually used in a morale check, but essentially meant they would never retreat. As in, it didn't even make an actual check. Or is it just that if they are that high, you will almost never, never fail?

Re: Why didnt my army rout?
30 morale can rarely fail a moralecheck i think while 50 and 99 either can't fail a moralecheck or hasn't even to do one .
I am not 100% sure though it would be cool if Kristoffer or Johan could confirm or correct this statement

Re: Why didnt my army rout?
I've seen a 30 moral unit fail moral checks solo repeatly, it was a lighly equipped angel casting phionix pyre, attack, goign up against undead horads. the angel averaged two deaths in combat before retreating.

Re: Why didnt my army rout?
50 means 'mindless', 99 means 'berserk'. I don't think either can run away.
