The Necromancer intones the dread syllables handed down from Nagash himself, breathing unlife into the lifeless cadavers strewn across the battlefield.
During the Command sub-phase of their turn, if they are not engaged in combat, this character may attempt to resurrect the fallen (see page 28) by making a Leadership test (using their own Leadership). If this test is passed, a single friendly unit that has the Necromantic Undead special rule and is within 12" of this character recovers a number of lost Wounds. However, magically repairing great Undead beasts is much harder than raising Zombies from the dirt. Therefore, how many Wounds are recovered depends upon the unit’s troop type and this character’s Level of Wizardry:
• If the unit’s troop type is ‘regular infantry’ or ‘heavy infantry’, it recovers a number of Wounds equal to this character’s Level of Wizardry +D3.
• If the unit’s troop type is ‘swarms’, ‘light cavalry’ or ‘war beasts’, it recovers a number of Wounds equal to this character’s Level of Wizardry +1.
• If the unit’s troop type is ‘monstrous infantry’, ‘heavy cavalry’, ‘monstrous cavalry’ or ‘light chariot’, it recovers a number of Wounds equal to this character’s Level of Wizardry.
• If the unit’s troop type is ‘heavy chariot’, ‘monstrous creature’, ‘behemoth’ or ‘war machine’, it recovers a single Wound.
