Default Re: Wraith Crown and routing

I have observed fights like this--in particular fights with fear--and never seen a Morale 30 creature rout from Fear since I started looking for it. Notably, even high-morale (22) creatures rout when faced with e.g. 300 Hydras after killing maybe 10 of them, but five Morale 30 creatures will kill them all without a problem. (Assuming they're tough enough, that is.) You can actively observe the Morale dropping on the Morale 22 guys, too (Fear causes Morale loss), whereas the Morale 30 guys stay up at 30 the whole time.

Incidentally, this makes Manifestation great against non-Morale 30 creatures, even ones w/ Ritual of Returning, Phoenix Pyre, #secondshape, etc. Ashen Angels have Fear. And if you rout off the edge of the battlefield you just die.

P.S. At first I had "immortality" listed along w/ RoR, etc., but come to think of it, I don't know of any units w/ immortality that aren't also Morale 30.
