Hero never respawns?
Hello,

I now have had two heroes die in campaign - one was skink chief(level 5) and the other a skin priest(lvl 13). None of them have respawned. Is this a bug or what is going on? It would seem odd to me that you have to start all over with a hero just because it dies in battle(when the lord can be respawned in the state it was before diying). So I have to start from scratch with all my heroes when the die - is this true?

Unless it is your starting, Legendary Lord, all your OTHER Lords will permanently die in battle too. The same goes for Heroes. You have to get them up to level 20 and choose the Immortality Skill for a normal Lord or Hero to be killed and simply respawn later.

Oh, unless you are playing Tomb Kings - they have the unique perk that their normal Lords are Immortal from the start as well. Otherwise, this is standard for every faction and every race across the board.

Thats because they died. The same happens to generic Lords too. Unless you get the immortal skill at level 20 they will never respawn. You just have to recruit another one.

I mean they are dead, you know what DEAD means right?

Why would they respawn? they are dead, if they get wounded they come back.

Same would happen with a lord other than your legendary lord.
Characters only get wounded like legendary lords after you reach lvl 20 and take the immortality perk, until then if they get to 0 HP in battle they're dead permanently.
Ahh okay, thanks guys. Then I guess I have to be more careful :) I obviously know what dead means but what confuses me is that when my lord gets killed and is DEAD, I can recruit him back with the same level he was before

You are talking about your LL and hes immortal by default.
All LL's are immortal.
Superb - now I know how it works, appreciate your input!

They dead.

Only a few heroes start the game immortal. The rest need lvl20 for the skill

Just to clarify what others have said. At level 20 you can get the immortal skill and then heroes and lords will respawn like Legendary Lords.

Before level 20 if they die in battle they are dead. If a hero with the assassinate skill gets a critical success on their hero action the hero will die. If any other hero does the wound action then the hero will respawn.

He isn't dead, when legendary lords fall to 0 HP they get "wounded", when an immortal character falls to 0 HP they get "wounded", when a not immortal character falls to 0 HP they are "dead".

To further on ^. The event card for the hero/lord will say whether s/he is dead or wounded.

And on top of this, there are also some unique lords that are immortal by default, such as the Greenskin ones you get from tech, or Alastar the White Lion.

The amount of times the same answer has been repeated in this thread is mind boggling
