I was quite surprised when the units kept regenerating, and in the
location of the noble too. So I started using them quite recklessly.
If they die permamently, then perhaps there should be some way of
adding forces to them, say if you have some skeletons from a fight
and a helm of undead control, then you should be able to beef up your
unit (if they can go away).
