German General units are tougher than Gestae. I surrouned a General with 5 units of triarii, pelted him with javelins, and hit him with 1 round of calvary.
The guard fought till the last man, which of course was the general. I knocked him down 9 times before I killed him. He was engulfed by at least 500 units.
AutoResolving battles against an army with more than 1 german general unit, regardless of the odds being in your favour, almost always results in a huge loss for the player.
They never flee. German Generals have numerous stars, are impossible to assassinate, and do not route...ever. They chew up calvary, be it my general or regular, like nothing else.
I'm playing on VH battles and H map.
