If that's the case, then you've not been playing Medieval long enough--or you've been very lucky. I guarantee, it'll happen to you sooner or later! The scene will play out something like this:

You'll have the battle almost completely won, with all enemy troops killed, captured, or routed--except for the enemy general and whatever is left of his unit. His few remaining defenders will fall relatively quickly, but the general himself will stubbornly refuse to die or run. You'll hurl wave after wave of troops at him, only to have your men run in terror--after losing at least half their numbers, of course. You'll probably order your missile troops to start shooting at him as well, even if it means your infantry attacking the general takes casualties from friendly fire. You may even have to send in your own general to finally deliver the coup de grace.

In the end, once the dust settles, you'll realize you've lost at least a couple hundred guys to take out just one man.
