Yet another way to lose a province

I think it's pretty unlikely. I can't remember the Last time I saw any stealthy unit survive against the province defenses...

My stealthy survive most of the time. It might be due to the fact that I put them on rear row, with order to retreat
Most nations scouts cannot handle even the base commander of the province defenses (who routs separately from his troops, or when they have all left the battle). If you add a few troops, it becomes near impossible for a scout to win... unless you are fielding, say, a Master Druid pretender with 7 artefacts on him, or something like that...
On the other hand, for nations that have access to stealthy regular troops, putting 20 of them under 2 scouts does work to capture undefended provinces...

P.S. Just try that against my favorite Ulmian defenses (lvl 40 province defense) and see what it does to your troops
