Dragon problem

[DavidTesch]

I'm having a bit of trouble trying to figure out why when I deploy my dragon in battle it does inflict losses in the enemy army, but their morale remains unchanged. It says that there will be a huge morale loss, but nothing changes in terms of morale. Any idea why? Am I doing something wrong?

 

[jjjdddsss]

Are you letting it tick? I could be wrong but I think the numbers go down then the morale will drop later.

I'm pretty sure there was enough time for the morale to drop, but I may be wrong. Is it supposed to take a long time? Could I be losing the battles so fast that it doesn't tick? I don't think that's the case... I used to play the mod when dragons were not actual characters and when I deployed them it would pretty much obliterate the other army almost instantly, so, I got used to that.

Edit: I had this battle just now last quite some time and even fired the dragon event a few times, didn't change morale.

Am I wrong to assume that, if I have a dragon, I should easily win a battle in which the enemy numbers are double of my own?

Yes DAvid you are wrong.
Its been changed since the patch that reworked dragons.
A dragon's power is based off its martial skill. Newly hatched dragons arent even half as strong as a 100year old one

THat's because the moral command used in the event has no effect in field battle, only in sieges. PDX never intended it this way.

Ok, thanks for clarifying that for me.

Ding ding ding. That's the answer. Killing a lot of the enemy at once can still have serious moral effects, but command itself isn't working correctly.
