I just relized i have no idea what disipline affects in combat and after looking through the pdf strat guide and manual I guess I'm just wondering anybody care to enlighten me? Main reason im asking is because I tend to roll the dice when Im gonna start a risky with a war and go for a morale or displine related omen.

So morale is pretty straightforward but not to sure about disipline.

Discipline determines how much you do damage, so it's pretty neat to have.

Indeed, that's (probably) the way it works, but I still haven't seen any official documentation on the matter.

By my understanding, combat is resolved roughly like this:
  1. Units opposing each other on the map fight each other. Faster units (cavalry and especially missile cavalry) with a higher Manouver rating can attack more, but still only receive damage from the unit in front of them (unless the enemy also has higher Manouver units).
  2. Units that are fighting each other compare their Offensive stat to the enemy's Defensive stat. This number (let's call it the "Damage") is then modified by their army's dice roll.
  3. The Damage value is then somehow modified (probably multiplied) by the unit's Discipline value.
  4. The Organisation value determines how quickly your army regains its Morale after a battle.
Again, this is my understanding of how it works, I may be very wrong.
