| New to Dominions 6, spells that only mess with Morale (other than the Blessing spells) now impact a **Morale Bonus** value. This scales from **-10** to **+1**. If the Bonus is **negative**, it randomly increases at a rate of //around// 1 point per 2 rounds, until it gets back to 0. ??Sermon of Courage?? and ??Fanaticism?? both increase the Morale Bonus by 1, while the effects that reduce the Morale Bonus can be broadly classified into two types: | New to Dominions 6, spells that only mess with Morale (other than the Blessing spells) now impact a **Morale Bonus** value.

| The stacking (or lack thereof) of these penalties and bonuses is governed by changing the minimum of your Morale Bonus. Fear "Damage" can only lower your Morale Bonus down to **negative X** (with "X" being its magnitude), while Frighten "Damage" can lower your Morale Bonus down to **-5**. Frightening effects don't have any effect if your Morale Bonus is already at -5, but Fear-inducing effects will always trigger a rout check. | To clarify, "Major Fear" can't bring your Morale Bonus below **negative X**, with "X" being the magnitude of its effect. If your Morale Bonus is already that value or lower, it doesn't decrease further, **though it will still cause a rout check**. "Minor Fear" is completely ineffective to those already at-or-beyond its cap. There are currently no clear ways to push a Morale Bonus below -5, let alone to -10. |
