Proposed Rule Change - Moral Check in Assault Phase

I would like to propose that the moral check during the Assault Phase triggered by losing a combat based on the number of wounds sustained is changed to being triggered by the percentage of unit wounds lost in the phase (25% as per loses in the Shooting Phase) and that there is no modifier based on the number of wounds sustained.

My reasoning behind this is that I feel it unfairly discriminates against large number/low cost units, such as those common in Ork armies. The Ork codex appears to have been written on the basis that low abilities (BS, saves, armour, invulnerability etc...) are balanced out by low cost i.e. that higher spec opponents are resisted by weight of numbers rather than abilities. With the current arrangement for moral in the Assault Phase it is common for a largely intact Ork unit to be wiped out through failing a morale check and the resulting 'sweeping advance' (which Orkz also tend to be disadvantaged in due to low initiatives across the board).

I do note the Ork 'Mob Rule' ability which gives them an opportunity to redress a failed morale check (which in the new codex this has much reduced effectiveness) but I don't believe it addresses the above issue.
