I've never seen a morale-30 unit rout from anything short of a complete army wipeout, where commanders auto-rout because their army has been destroyed. Sometimes I wish they *WOULD* bug out, but they never do. Either way, I certainly know when to bug out....but I WILL BE BACK! I'm not mindless, after all.

I have seen it, which was a rude surprise. I have a savegame of one somewhere, but I have so many of them now that I've no idea which one has that battle (it was an AI or indy unit that did it, IIRC). And the mindless straight line is *so* tempting ...

Yeah, I'll bet. I wonder what happened? Maybe it was explicitly ordered to do so? And if you succumb to the temptation, I'll say something biting and nasty back.

Of course you will. That's what makes you so endearing ...

My Vastness (30 morale) routed due to pesky longbowmen during the Last turn of my AAR despite most likely being able to kill them without breaking much of a sweat

Did he rout because of troop loss? It's possible that if he enslaved a unit, which then died, it auto-routed because of that.

Nope, it had no troops and due to 3S wasn't able to enslave anything.
