What are the possible outcomes of a fight in Game of Thrones: Dragonfire?

There are 3 confirmed outcomes:

1. Victory ✅ — you destroy the defender or defenders. It often happens when the enemy was already softened by an earlier wave or an ally. Note: a message along the lines of "Victory! but enemy defenders remain" means the tile has other armies left to beat.
2. Stalemate 🟰 — after 10 rounds, both sides still have troops. Nobody wins and, crucially, there's no loot. That's the trap when you aren't strong enough to finish the job.
3. Defeat ❌ — your army is emptied before it destroys the enemy.

The point that changes everything: a stalemate isn't half a victory, it's a fight for nothing. If you stalemate, you either need to come back with several waves or strengthen your armies (auras, research, Initiative).
