Morale Results
What happens after a Morale check, based on success or degree of failure.
| Result | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Success | Stands firm. Continues fighting. |
| Failure by 1–3 (Shaken) | −2 dice to all actions until rallied or threat removed. |
| Failure by 4–6 (Breaks) | Attempts to flee. Will surrender if cornered. |
| Failure by 7+ (Routs) | Panicked flight. Drops weapons, screams, tramples allies. |
Combat that ends in surrender is more memorable than combat that ends in extinction. A Routed bandit who comes back two sessions later with a vendetta is better drama than a corpse.
