Not positive, but I believe the multiple armies grab a percentage of the
single army's attention based on some offensive strength calculation, rather
than just numbers of troops or constitution or whatever. It seems like armies
with better weapons, archers (so strength is higher proportionately than
constitution) fight a larger percentage of the enemy, while armies with better
armor fight a smaller percentage. Not sure just how artifacts, war machines and
spells enter into the calculation, but I think they come into play after the
division is determined, so an army that has such things does better in its
battle than one without, i.e. it fights fewer enemy troops than it would have
if such things were added in the initial calculations.

Not positive about this, but I think it's "pro-rata" unless you do something
like AttNat instead of AttEnmy.
