Reanimation - is it worth it for non-Ermor nation?

Reanimating with a lvl 1 priest is yielding 4 ghouls.
Reanimating souless in a province with corpses yields 24 armored souless.

Strangely the manual shows lvl 3 priest as summoning 20 souless. A lvl 1 priest is supposed to get 4 ghouls and a level 2 priest is supposed to get 5 ghouls. Is there another mechanic involved in determining results that are not listed in the manual? These results were in enemy growth 2 dominion and I saw no change in population where raising ghouls. Assuming that the growth offset the population killed.

Interesting. I'll do more experiments than.

As for population loss - 1 ghoul = 10 people in your province. IMHO Not worth it, unless you are desperate.

Armored souldless might be better option, since you are getting quite a bit of arrows fodder for free.

So does province need to have 24 corpses to get 24 armored souless? And is this number (24) for lvl 1 priest as well?

And finally - what about longdead and longdead horsemans? Do they require corpses as well, or they reduce population, like ghouls?

As an Oni, my only lvl 3 priest is my Oni King prophet. But for some strange reason whenever he is at any moment, usually there are a lot of corpses around. >

So perhaps I should use him to reanimate dead, when his army is not moving.
