Zealot not working correctly?

The tool tip says that the General "Cannot die with 2+ HP". The screenshot shows otherwise. Am I missing something?

Look at the notifications for a different cause of death. The elephant isn't dead, so he didn't die in combat.

Hi Dale. Thanks for the reply. The turn has long since gone by, but as I recall, I got the notification immediately after the combat, so it doesn't seem to jibe with what you are saying. It might have been an event where the general dueled an enemy general. Does this event override (or is counted as different from) death in combat? I will keep an eye out for it happening again and try to be more precise in the 'error' reporting.

The actual ability means the Unit will not be killed when it has 2 or more HP. Generals themselves don't have HP, only units. So yes, possible that the General Duel event triggered.

However, the unit itself will drop to 1 HP instead of dieing, and then next combat it can be killed.
