I think that orcs should be more likely to abandon while elves and dwarves are least likely to do so. It would have to be a rare occurance so that players could keep up armies but it definitely gives more depth to the NPCs If that happens  orcs  should  have  bigger  and  more  numerous  battalions  or they should  have  plenty of powerful  troops  such  as  ologhai  so they won't always  end up retreating Well the not as bright and larger units would have been trained to fight till the death, like ologs and trolls. Only certain troops would do this. Uruks for example, wouldn't at all. Gundabads would be more likely and Angmar, Dol Guldur, and Mordor orcs will fall somewhere inbetween.

Same with the good side. Elves would never desert while Rohirrim or Gondor would desert the most (still not a lot though). Dwarves and rangers would fall between that.

Just adding that some troops can desert helps to add on to Mevans' point about adding depth to the mod. It would prove NPCs to have more of a personality instead of the exact same behaviour in different mobs. Overall, it may be a bit difficult to code, but the idea would most certainly make the mod even more accurate with the lore.
