Morale and Luck in Combat...how?!

Can someone please explain to me how Morale and Luck works now?  Do units take an extra turn when possessing high morale, etc.

Thanks.

-John

I believe (though I'm not 100% sure) that it mainly affects the order in which your units move during the turn. the higher the morale, the more likely you are to move before the enemy

Bot sure how the luck works.

But in morale, the unit with the best high morale goes first in Heroes IV.  

If several unit have high morale at the smae time then it goes by the speed of the character.

the best way is for a character or creature eg Priest or genie to cast frevor or mass frevor to guarantee the first turn in battle.

Morale affects move order in combat and also damage done.
Move order in combat is decided by morale (highest priority) then combat speed then low morale (lowest priority).

Luck reduces damage to the lucky unit.

Luck and moral

Morale

Units that receive a moral bonus in the beginning of a turn, may move before units that don't receive one. If two units receive a moral bonus, the one with the higher speed goes first. Also, a moral bonus increases the damage that the unit does by 25%.

Bad moral can cause a moral penalty in the beginning of a turn. In that case, the unit will move after units that didn't get a moral penalty and the damage it does is decreased by 20%.

Luck

When you have positive luck, there is a chance that your enemy does 1/3 less damage against you (which allows you to take 50% more hits). Negative luck gives your opponent a chance to do 50% extra damage against you.

For both luck and moral, the following is true (according to various guides):

+1 luck/moral gives a 10% chance that the effect is applied.
+2 luck/moral gives a 20% chance.
+5 luck/moral gives a 50% chance.
-8 luck/moral gives a 80% chance.

And so on.

Edit: you're welcome
