When a slot is eliminated it effects the overall morale of the force.  So,
when you start to destroy slots, it's possible for the entire force to fail
a morale check and retreat as a whole.

When you conquer a location, any remaining soldiers revert to unskilled
pop and their weapons go into the possessions of the location.
