We junior members can't edit stuff, and yeah, these Romans are pretty stupid.

You must've healed one man. I once mod (cheat) the game once, adding the battle surgery bonus to my generals, which resulted in my casualties recovered in half every battle or so.

If I were you I would be pleased. Take this opportunity and BURN THE ROMANS!

Be wary, though, if you're playing VH campaign, the AI got free stacks every turn.. out of thin air.
