Right. But they still would have died, only the ones without a commander would unstealth, attack and retreat to die.

You'd think stealthy troops would have the common sense to stay hidden even without a commander. But I don't think the stealth/patrolling mechanism allows it.

The commander died and the troops just vanished. There was no battle.

So, I'd gotten my dom 6 F6N4 lord of the desert sun ruling Machaka in singleplayer. I had him nicely equipped for trouncing the AI. I had Gift of Health, Eternal Pyre, and Mother Oak up (cast by him, of course), and was producing more fire gems through fever fetishes. I had him equipped with a weapon, some heavy Elemental resist armor, 9 reinvig, and a ring of regeneration. Four hundred hitpoints or so. Scripted to cast personal regeneration, fire shield, some other buff. So this guy was regenning had four hundred or so hp with some ridiculous regen. How could I lose him? Against independent troglodytes of course. I thought indeps couldn't be any possible threat, so I forgot to check the dominion scales before moving in.

And I was wondering why my regen was only eight hitpoints...
