Undead without lifeless ability + regeneration

[TirAsleen]

yeah, i know all that. however, i do not understand why PoD wh o is not lifeless(!) cannot restore his hp with personal regneration cast. there is life drain and soul vortex, problem with these spells is, they come too late for the time i need it. i would rather see PoD more expansive and more things work on him. like having early life drain or personal regeneration working on him, after all he is not lifeless. on lifeless creatures/mages/gods no matter if undead or not they seem not even be able to cast personal regeneration on themselves. if you script the spell they will cast something different. but PoD still casts it but it won't restore a single hp point. maybe all it does is protect against affliction better. also saw similar things with blessed lictors, who are not lifeless too.

i will do some more tests, though. the whole point of this is, if nature path is any good for a pure undead strat or not---> no use of regeneration, supplies. But it can help to forge the chalice, undead without recuperation(carrion dragon has it) or immortality will have serious problems to heal affliaction, like PoD, so i start to wonder if this unit needs compensation and perhaps increased cost too then. as PoD is also a good fighter with his aura of fear when it comes to morale weak troops, mainly most indies. but getting inflictions over and over again and no way to heal or even at leat have regeneration is not good. i'd expect a better balance here, cause i kinda think PoD is a cool pretender to have if some things here are tweaked, like regen should work on him at least, not that his hp are that great either. but i find myself always taking master lich cause of the many shortcomings of the PoD. why can't he go into water provinces? thats another disturbing factor here. and his rod of death is not useful, he should have life drain, really. else he is just good to scare off some weak indies.
