Capture/Destroy Pop
Army vs Army first. You kill the army, then whatever is left goes
for the pop centre.
Are you saying that:
This army is stacked in the program against the pop center with NO
changes excepting that the troop numbers are reduced? No training
for the troops successful combat? No increased moral? No increased
command rank? In other words, just another round of combat with a
new defense (pop centre)? Thus, no effect of spells, arties, Woses,
dragons, etc...?
Sounds right........

Exactly right. Any army combat in the hex will take the full effect of
spells and artifacts (NPC's too, if present, which of course includes
dragons!) in its first round, and none of the above will affect the pc
combat. Just make sure the sacrificial army is large enough not to be
overrun when the enemy enters the hex -- which if you pc has fortifications
to add in, won't take much.

I believe (less than 100% confidence) that the training, morale, and command
boosts are not accrued until all combat for the turn is completed. I am
very sure, from discussions with the old GSI crew, that the spells, arties,
and NPC's affect only the first combat of the turn (i.e. the army combat if
there is one), and only in the first round of that combat. And yes, the
attacking force's losses in the army combat do take effect before the pc
combat...
