Devourer of Souls with +10 fear keeps retreating!

My main concern is what in the world does his Fear strength have to do with morale issues in the least? Psychologically speaking, almost all bullies (who survive by causing fear in others) are cowards. Thus, there is no logical reason that someone with Fear should have a high morale.

As vfb has been explaining your Devourer is retreating because he's traveling with an army. Army units die and the drop of overall hitpoints makes him retreat.

But my devourer of souls is casting plenty of spells, quickness, fireshield, invulnerability, and getting ethereal, luck, and regen spells cast on it by my shaman. With a 1-hit kill attack (he has two rings that give more attack), he is a force to be rekoned with. However, I'd never put him alone.

If your Devourer cannot travel solo than he's more of a Thug than a SuperCombatant. Thugs travel in groups or with an army... SC's receive this title because they take out entire armies by themselves.

If you want your Devourer to have 30 morale than just use the modding to change it yourself. There's no way the developers will adjust commander/unit stats just because one person feels it's a great idea.

NT Jedi, lighten up! Gah, so hostile... :\ gonna send my devourer of souls on you.

I didn't say anything hostile... just listed facts.

Yeah I didnt find his tone hostile, either.

technically speaking, phrases like "do it yourself" and "just because of you" are used in hostile situations, so it can sound hostile even if it wasn't intended.

no it's cleary outlining the situation... the devourer has been like that for a while now and only you bring it up.. so it's to the point.. btw you complain to much agri

nearly everyday you bring up a topic that something you happen to be using isn't good enough.

I think you should list strengths and weaknesses of troops you use before you use them and anticipate on it.... in this case you could have prevented him routing by increasing morale etc. or preventing all the troops to die

Just a tip to prevent you stressing on otherthings in the future my ally

(not to mention the fact that I'd rather not have you find out something the hard way in our PPP game
