ROUT. NOT ROUTE.

You want to kill or rout them so that they don't stand in your way when you attack their kingdom. If it's just about crippling individual members then, instead of kingdom battles, you should have groups of Dustari or Bakagun or whoever running around picking on any solo guy they can find. Obviously this is not how wars work. If we want battles to be realistic and significant then the fighters must put their kingdom's safety above their own, and we all know that this will not happen if we impose penalties on dying.

And there is no point for the enemy to roue and take up a decision if they can just fight, die, and then take up a better position at the same strength as they were before the first battle.
Yes. WHICH IS WHY I SAID THEY SHOULD BE UNABLE TO FIGHT FOR SOME TIME AFTERWARDS. Read the WORDS, man.

But it doesnt matter anymore cus the whole reason I have been arguing is because I wanted someone to argue back and convince me I was wrong, and Rahz Zalinto just did that so yay
Wow, somebody actually managed to get some sense into your thick skull? I may have a new hero.
