Casualties

[CSX4451]

I'm guessing that casualties numbers after a battle include both the dead and wounded. These number are of course removed from our available manpower for the next battle. Does the game take into effect that wounded men can at some point return to their unit and be added back to your manpower?

This is why you have to skill medicine in mid- and lategame. This gets a higher percentage of the wounded back into the battle without draining manpower. You have to remember most regular wounded soldiers died of their wounds, either because they simply couldn't be rescued fom the field or succumbed to infections later on. Additionally a high percentage wasn't anymore battleworthy if they survived.
