It would seem resonable that something in the coding could be done to automatically retrain the AI's body guard unit and charge them appropriately even if the AI didn't willingly allow for it. Perhaps by merely having the army in a garrison or something like that. On the field would be a different story. Perhaps this wasn't done because the AI would often have 3 or so bodyguard units per army and would be very difficulty to defeat if they regenerated on their own. I know nothing of coding however.as it has to pay astronomical support costs and cannot retrain them
I would often pull out my generals from melee I engaged them in when they started to take too many casualties, mabey I was exploiting the mechanics. Now that you mention it, not being able to do such seems much more appealing. Though the fact that they can still run away safely when totally surrounded still remains.Also in STW, units could not be pulled out of melee once engaged, so this becomes much more critical
