This is an old revision of the document!
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".
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.
A basic rule of thumb is that most reanimated undead are mindless troops; usually with 15 Cold Resistance, 25 Poison Resistance, and with at least the traits Need not Eat, Never Heals, and Inanimate.
Generally, most reanimated undead can be grouped into 2 categories: Longdead and Soulless.

complete the list
Nations that have no special lesser undead summon the following types of undead:
The following nations will summon special types of undead when reanimating the appropriate type:
EA Ulm
EA Ulm's longdead have higher-damage weapons than most undead.
The Monkey Nations (EA Lanka, EA Kailasa, MA Bandar Log, LA Patala)
The undead Bandar are notable for having unusually high hitpoints and strength.
EA Hinnom and MA Ashdod
Hinnom and Ashdod reanimate giant longdead with very high damage and moderate hitpoints, making each summoning of longdead much more valuable than it would be for other nations.
