They call on me and ask me to take my place with them in the halls of Valhalla where the brave may live forever.

Morale effects how long your men will stand and fight.

Every point of valour gives:

+1 Defence
+1 Attack
+1 Morale (I think)

That's the difference.

Good question - I suspect in English it is synonymous with good morale (bravery).
Merriam-Websters online dictionary says:
"Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French valour, from Medieval Latin valor value, valor, from Latin valEre to be strong --
Date: 15th century
: strength of mind or spirit that enables a person to encounter danger with firmness : personal bravery

In the game, of course, it is different from morale. IIRC, one valour raises attack and defence by one, morale by two.

Valor is like the quality/experience of the troop, so valor 0 inexperienced valor 4 tough as hell, With each valor increase from 0 your unit gets extra points to attack and defence and maybe morale

I read somewhere on this board that each valor gives +2 morale (maybe the MAA comparison thread?). Not sure about that one though.

Every point of valour gives you +1 in attack and defence.
For morale, you get a +1 for every 2 valour I think so...
1 valour = no morale bonus
2 or 3 valour = +1 morale bonus
4 or 5 valour = +2 morale bonus

Think that's right - someone please correct me if not.
