Flashing red banners during battle

[Dazzy]

While playing Kingdoms MT2 I noticed during a battle, while my men were engaged in combat, that the banner/s started flashing red, I'm not too sure what this mean. I know that when it flashes green that they got a disease and moral goes down. I would be grateful if some one could tell me.

They are fighting to death.

[Ferret]

Also if you fire flamethrowers at a unit the banners flash red. This probably causes a morale hit as well but I'm not too sure.

Beserk.

They just joined the revolution...

Hehe.

[TheImp]

A banner becomes red when a unit is routing but can't escape. It happens usually when it is surrounded by enemies. Having no other choice, it fights to death.

[Dazzy]

Thank you everyone for taking the time to answer my question.

[Zoring]

They dont really fight though they just perish, bit silly really.

"There's no escape lads! Let's take some of these bastards with us!"
"Ugh, no thanks ill just let myself be stabbed"

[TheLastPrivate]

When they fight to death their combat abilities are somewhere above "nill" - Don't expect them to do much dmg at all.

If anything you'd think they'd be going above average seeing as the ONLY way they could possibly escape is to hack their way through the enemy.
