 ====== Reanimation ======
-The reanimation of lesser undead involves a number of spells and abilities. This page lists these spells and abilities, as well as the special undead that can be summoned by certain nations.
+\\
+\\
+**Reanimation is not a proper term used by the game, this page merely groups together vaguely similar traits and units that can be then described as "reanimation".**
-Lesser undead are units that lack the magic capabilities of their greater kin (e.g. ??Wraith Lord??s, ??Lich??es and ??Vampire Lord??s). Rather than serving as thugs or combat casters like greater undead, lesser undead usually act as chaff and overwhelm opponents with sheer mass.
+A number of spells and abilities can reanimate the undead. This page lists these spells and abilities, as well as the special national undead that can be summoned by certain nations.
-Lesser undead come in two types: Longdead and Soulless. Longdead are skeletons; they have much higher Attack, Defense and Magic Resistance, are faster and tend to come with better gear, but have very low hitpoints. Soulless are zombies; they have much worse skills but usually have higher strength and much more hitpoints.
+A basic rule of thumb is that most reanimated undead are mindless troops; usually with 15 {{:abilities:resist_cold.png?16&nolink}}[[Cold Resistance]], 25 {{:abilities:resist_poison.png?16&nolink}}[[Poison Resistance]], and with at least the traits {{:abilities:need_not_eat.png?16&nolink}}[[Need not Eat]], {{:abilities:never_heals.png?16&nolink}}[[Never Heals]], and {{:abilities:inanimate.png?16&nolink}}[[Inanimate]].
-=====Abilities====
+Generally, most reanimated undead can be grouped into 2 categories: Longdead and Soulless.
-There are several abilities that allow a commander to reanimate undead or impact the amount/type of undead they can summon.
+  * Longdead are also known as skeletons; they are usually resurrected warriors and so are often armed with weapons and armor. They have Attack and Defense stats similar to a trained human, but usually have barely more than half the hitpoints of their living equivalent. Notably, they usually have {{:abilities:spirit_sight.png?16&nolink}}[[Spirit Sight]] and {{:abilities:resist_pierce.png?16&nolink}}[[Pierce Resistance]].
+  * Soulless are also known as zombies; they are raised from the corpses of civilians as much as warriors, with lower than normal Attack and Defense stats relative to both cases. They also usually have higher strength and more hitpoints than their living equivalent. Notably, they are usually {{:abilities:undisciplined.png?16&nolink}}[[Undisciplined]] and do NOT have {{:abilities:darkvision.png?16&nolink}}[[Darkvision]] or {{:abilities:spirit_sight.png?16&nolink}}[[Spirit Sight]].
+\\
+\\
+===== Sources of Reanimation ====
+\\
+==== Damage Types ====
+\\
+  * **Unlife Damage:** Units killed by this effect will spawn a new Soulless.
+    * ??Shade Beast#442??'s Reanimating Bite deals this type of damage
+    * The Construction 6 Two handed Weapon ??Ivory Bow?? and the Construction 8 Artifact One handed Weapon ??Twin Spear#127?? both deal this type of damage
+    * The spells ??Bolt of Unlife??, ??Blast of Unlife??, and ??Vortex of Unlife?? all deal this type of damage
+    * FIXME How does this choose what type of Soulless to spawn?
-{{abilities:reanimation_bonus.png?25&nolink}} **Reanimation Bonus:** The commander is extra efficient at summoning undead. The value of this ability is split between two aspects: divine (reanimator priest) reanimation and reanimation using {{misc:magic:death.png?14&nolink}}death magic. The ??Amulet of the Dead?? item provides a reanimation bonus of 2/2 (+2 to both priestly and magic reanimation).
+  * **Reanimation Buff:** Units killed while under the effect of this buff will rise again for their own side and continue fighting as Soulless with any magic paths and/or commander status intact.
+    * The spell ??Life after Death?? applies this effect to all non-mindless friendly units.
+    * The effect can be applied to but will fail to activate for: Undead, Immortals, Demons, Inanimates, creatures that are inherently Ethereal, Pretenders, and most kinds of Animals. There are also exceptions on a unit by unit case, as seen on here: Loggy's [[User:loggy:misc | Misc Notes]]
+    * FIXME How does this choose what type of Soulless to spawn?
+\\
+\\
+==== Abilities ====
+\\
+  * **Reanimator {{abilities:reanimator.png?16&nolink}}:** Units killed by this unit have a chance equal to the value of their killer's Reanimator trait to spawn an ally of the killer. This is by default a Soulless, but can be something else if the unit also has the "raiseshape" trait.
+    * In the base game, there are 2 units with this trait that use it to create Soulless: ??Mound Fiend#439?? and ??Gorilon - Heliophagus#819??
+    * FIXME How does this choose what type of Soulless to spawn?
+  * **Reanimator Priest {{abilities:reanimator_priest.png?16&nolink}}:** A commander with this ability can spend a turn to reanimate a variable amount of undead, depending on their Holy level and the Nation that owns them. For more information, see the section on the Priestly Reanimate order further down.
+    * EA Lanka and MA Sceleria have recruitable commanders with this ability
+    * MA Ermor and LA Lemuria provide all priests they own with this ability for as long as they are owned
+    * MA Asphodel and LA C'tis provide all undead priests they own with this ability for as long as they are owned
+      * This does not prevent living commanders who have the ability from using it
-{{abilities:reanimator.png?25&nolink}} **Reanimator:** Units killed by this unit will transform into another unit under the control of the killer. In almost all circumstances, this yields Soulless.
+  * **Reanimator2:** A commander with this ability will passively raise this many corpses per month as Soulless. This ability has no icon, is normally called Reanimator just like the Raise on Kill effect but is called Reanimator2 here just to differentiate, and is currently only used on ??God Vessel#2489??.
+    * FIXME How does this choose what type of Soulless to spawn?
-{{abilities:reanimator_priest.png?25&nolink}} **Reanimator Priest:** A commander with this ability can spend a turn to reanimate undead. Some nations or specific units will be able to summon special kinds of undead.
+  * **Reanimation Bonus {{abilities:reanimation_bonus.png?16&nolink}}:** A commander with this ability produces as additional amount of troops when reanimating. This ability has two different values, a Priestly reanimation bonus and a Magical reanimation bonus.
+    * MA Nazca's recruitable commanders of ??Mallqui Priestess#2661??, ??Mallqui Priest#2662??, and ??Royal Mallqui#2663?? have this ability with an equal value for their priestly/magical bonus
+    * MA Nazca's ??Manco-Ocllo - First Couple?? hero, and EA/MA/LA Mictlan's ??Mictlipoctli - King of Legends?? hero both have this ability with an equal value for their priestly/magical bonus
+    * 6 pretenders and ??Bune - Ice Devil#825??, who all lack any Holy paths, have this ability with a 0 for priestly bonus
+    * The Construction 4 Miscellaneous Item ??Amulet of the Dead?? and the Construction 8 Artifact Crown ??The Crown of Despair?? both provide this ability
+    * FIXME What spells and orders does this affect again? Like I remember it working for Longdead and Longdead Horsemen but not Lictors or Ghouls.

+\\
+===== Priestly Reanimation ======
+\\
+==== How the Order Works =====
+\\
+  * A priest with this order will automatically continue to repeat it on subsequent turns, like a mage with the "monthly forging/casting" box ticked on.
+  * There are no working sanity checks when using the Reanimate order. Priests will try to carry it out and repeat order as normal, even when it has no effect. Here are some notable situations.
+    * While underwater, and summoning undead that cannot breathe underwater.
+    * With no available corpses, and summoning undead that require corpses to create.
+    * With no population, and summoning undead that require population.
+  * FIXME Test if the + means that the units are affected by Reanimation Bonus, which seems to be the most likely thing given how Tomb Chariots have the + and Tomb Wyrms do not, but I haven't tested this.
+  * Asphodel and Lemuria's commanders who have the Reanimator Priest tag (be it naturally or as provided by their dominion) do not have the traditional Reanimate order, instead their order to summon undead is called by a different name.
+    * Therodos has Call Spectres
+      * This has no alternate options, and therefore no choice or menu to select
+    * Asphodel has Awaken Manikins
+      * This has no alternate options, and therefore no choice or menu to select
+    * Lemuria has Call Spirits

+FIXME The tables shown here are based off of testing. However, what was tested was only what the nations listed as special when it comes to undead reanimation in the modding manual. Said modding manual is the very same that just flat out states the wrong priest level for what is needed to summon Longdead Horsemen and Lictors. \\
+FIXME Seperate from the nation tables, add the ingame description of each of the options and hopefully figure out a way to see what they actually do.

+===== Longdead Generation Formula =====
+\\
+==== Spawning Process ====
+\\
+If you don't have nationals, just use the fallback output. \\
+The chances to pull from the "national pool" varies depending on the creation method: \\
+  * Effect 37 rituals, (remote summons, like ??Army of the Dead#970??)
+    * 50% chance of national longdead for Commander
+    * 10% chance of national longdead for Troops
+  * Effect 1 rituals, (summons, like ??Reanimation#877??)
+    * 100% chance of national longdead
+  * Priest Reanimation order, chance depends on your nation:
+    * MA Ermor, Sceleria:
+      * 10% chance of national longdead
+    * Niefelheim, Jotunheim, Utgard:
+      * 25% chance of national longdead
+    * Hinnom, Ashdod:
+      * 50% chance of national longdead
+    * Any other nation:
+      * 75% chance of national longdead
+  * Otherwise, there is a 10% chance to get nationals.

+===== Soulless Generation Formula ======
+\\
+==== Basic Information ====
+Each soulless request looks at a few things:
+  * The nation creating soulless
+  * The province ID the soulless are being made in
+  * A chance for national soulless
+  * A chance for arming soulless
+  * The number of corpses to subtract
+----
+Sources and values for national and arming rates for the above:
+  * Montag -3:
+    * 10% national, 100% ArmingChance
+  * Montag -15:
+    * 25% national, 50% ArmingChance
+  * "newunit" called with unit ID -1, unknown if this is used:
+    * 10% national, 100% ArmingChance
+  * Battlesummon, damage -3:
+    * 10% national, 100% ArmingChance
+  * Reanimator priests:
+    * 90% ArmingChance, but national rate varies:
+      * If Jotunheim, 50% national
+      * If Utgard, 25% national
+      * Any other nation:
+        * Reanimator priest holy level is considered as 1 higher if ((closed d5 - 1) < number of friendly candles) in province,
+        * National soulless rate = (reanimator priest's holy level * 8)%
+  * Rituals, effect number 1 [summons, though there are no base game rituals that summon Soulless this way]:
+    * 100% national, 90% ArmingChance
+  * Rituals, effect number 37 [remote summons, like ??Carrion Reanimation??]:
+    * Units:
+      * 10% national, 10% ArmingChance
+    * Commander:
+      * 50% national, 90% ArmingChance
+\\
+==== Spawning Process ====
+  * If there is a province ID associated with this creation:
+    * Roll soulless ArmingChance, if successful proceed as making Lightly Armed soulless
+    * Otherwise, if (Civilian corpses < Military corpses):
+      * Proceed as making Lightly Armed soulless
+  * Armed Soulless upgrade chances:
+    * In EA,
+       * 25% chance to: upgrade Lightly Armed to Medium Armed soulless
+    * In MA,
+       * 50% chance to: upgrade Lightly Armed to Medium Armed, and if that succeeds:
+          * 25% chance: to upgrade to Heavy armed soulless (total of a 1/8 chance)
+    * In LA,
+       * 75% chance to upgrade Lightly Armed to Medium Armed, and if that succeeds:
+          * 50% chance: to upgrade to Heavy Armed soulless (total of a 3/8 chance)
+  * If there wasn't a province ID, you always get Unarmed soulless
+  * If this attempt is subtracting corpses, do that now.
+    * Unarmed soulless subtract Civilian corpses
+    * Any kind of Armed soulless subtract Military corpses
+  * Spawn the following unit:
+    * Unarmed:
+      * ??Soulless#197??-197
+    * Lightly Armed:
+      * ??Soulless Warrior#914??-914
+    * Medium Armed:
+      * ??Soulless Warrior#915??-915
+    * Heavily Armed:
+      * ??Soulless Warrior#2119??-2119
+  * If the chance for national soulless was a success, then potentially modify the result as shown below.
