I've noticed that my Aura of Fear ability appears to have no effect on the enemy units.
I've done some experiments using Sir Kay and Sir Bedivere as test subjects. I'd release some prisoners, then attack them with respective armies and cast Aura of Fear immediately after the start of each battle. I would then observe the enemy unit's drop of stamina over time as it ran towards me.

With Sir Kay's Aura of Fear at level 4, the enemy spearmen's unit stamina dropped by a mere 14% over a course of 1 minute. Given the fact that the unit was losing stamina just from the running itself, I have to conclude that the Aura of Fear did nothing or next to nothing...

I then repeated the same scenario but with Sir Bedivere, whose Aura of Fear is at lvl 3. The results were identical.

I must conclude that either the Aura of Fear is completely bugged and non-functioning at this time, or the description of it is inaccurate...Does this ability have a range of effectiveness, which neither displays visually nor is included in the description? If so, then a visual aid is a must fix for this.

Else if, as I suspect, this is simply a bug, then please correct.
