Again about the tests: using general units makes the units perform differently than to their real stats, due to morale bonus etc...
they only get a morale bonus cuz of the generals bodyguard but seeing as that they are elite and their morale is already much higher i think this can be disregarded. besides the generals morale bonus is a area bonus so the enemy gets a similar bonus since the general is in the direct area (and not on the other side of the battlefield)
