Morale
Morale is a measure of a unit's confidence and spirit during a battle. During a lengthy, protracted melee, the morale of the men is severely tested, and they will break and rout if it gets too low. The presence of the general alone can improve morale and highly-trained, elite units have much higher morale from the outset. Generals can also rally their men more effectively by use of their special regroup position, inspire and encourage abilities.
