[battleRep=372517]xImmortalx Vs paladin66[/battleRep]


He only had this in defence:

Heavy Archers   13 487   
Ballistae           25

he's lvl 44, i'm 39 but surely his armour rating isn't more than 20? Archery attack power more than 20? Only 25 ballistae??

Also I know i lost spearmen here but he had too many scouts and couldn't gain a report, so i just sent everything.

Anyone know?

You attacked out of net worth points range x4, which decreased the strength of your army and initial morale points. Attacks upon Empires out of range x2 cause morale, honor and attack strength drop. Defender's towers and garrison army inflicted damages and morale losses to your army and your units fled due to a low morale during the battle. The third line, where all long ranged siege engines are deployed, fled in round 6 at 28 morale points. The frontline fought two more rounds and fled at 24 morale. After passing the 50 points of the morale, there is a chance progressively increasing by 2% with every Morale point below 50 for your army to flee.

Thanks for the info. I did find out in the end it was due to low moral!
