There is no exact answer what it does in Dark Omen, but we assume from SotHR that it pushs your army. See also this thread (http://forum.dark-omen.org/singleplayer/few-questions-regarding-mechanics-do-t272.0.html)

The Dark Omen manual states:

"To encourage a regiment to even greater effort during a battle, repeatedly press the Hero button to boost their strength. This only applies when a regiment is in hand-to-hand combat. This boost only affects your current regiment and is only temporary. The Hero gauge shows the build-up of strength boost. Only when the gauge is in the red zone will the boost have an effect. Note that it will become harder to reach the red zone as your regiment suffers more casualties."

only in terms of it becomes harder to reach the red zone as your regiment suffers more casualties.....

So in your case your troops are dying, due to loosing their combat in hand-to-hand melee' which is determined by their stats and luck of the Virtaul Dice Roll and of course all other factors, that are detailed in Combat Mechanics.

Is it common knowledge that if you press Alt while clicking on a magic item, your regiment drops it?
