Two armies attacking the same province

Take a medusa as an example. She can kill 500 conventional troops per battle without taking a single hit with very cheap equipment. Put her with a small force and she'll rout as soon as the troops die.

Is this happening in Dom3? Because this should have been changed - see manual p. 73. Commanders are no longer supposed to rout when all of their troops have been killed. Are things still happening the old way?

It's page 80, and there's a mention of:

Army rout Once an army hsa taken 75% casualties in a battle, it will automatically rout.


I haven't noticed it being anywhere near the severity of DomII routing problems. In fact, I don't think I've ever actually noticed this taking effect.

That is correct - I was just wondering if armies were routing due to commanders losing all their units.

Thanks for the clarification.

Luck does plenty for me. If I don't take any luck/misfortuse, even aided by order 3, I get a crapload of brigands, fires, and earthquakes. Also random monster attacks, of course. I get a ton of good events with luck 3, (though some of them are flaggelants and militia) though it's mostly 120 points of protection money.
