- Restrictions on Necromancers. The total number of skeletons raised using necromancy during a day cannot exceed the number of skeletons that died in battles on that day. All other raised skeletons must be dismissed before the end of the turn. In the Necropolis Castle, you can choose any hero to start with. Izre and Vidomina can take expert necromancy.
