    Thing is, this time he didn't "die" his unit just got checked out of the battle - I stabbed him again and got the "grievously wounded" message, but his stack escaped, so I'll have to stab him at least twice more. I wish CA would just post the rules on this so we knew what we had to do, two times, eight times, four times... nobody seems to know.

    I've read so many different first-hand accounts of "how many times it took me to kill Attila". Some folks write they've finished him off in only 2-3 tries, while for others he seems to have 9 lives. I suspect there's an element of randomization involved. Like, say, the first "kill" (zero percent chance of an actual kill) kicks in some sort of increasing chance of getting him on successive opportunities. Or something like that.

    Well, in my case I fought him five times - first time he escaped, his unit became invulnerable after he broke, second time he was wounded, third time he was wounded, fourth time I got the "Only a Man" popup and then he died on auto-calc.

    So I think you have to eliminate his stack, then wound him again and it fires. I tried reloading and he get getting bad entrails, so it wasn't random, something is definitely counting tokens.
