Scourge of War Boards

Is there a morale check in the game that can trigger chain-reaction routs?

Recently played a sandbox game in which two units of low quality landwehr infanty routed and ran through two other units of landwehr that were a ways behind them.

The units behind them then routed as well.

They were under long-range artillery fire, but nothing major.

Thanks!

Panic begets panic is built in. Greener troops sometimes retreat in this situation, but I've never seen a rout cause a rout.

I've seen this several times. Its one of the really neat new features of WL.
