Default Tomb Kings Rules Question

So, I'm going to start WHFB this summer, and was looking over the codex for Tomb Kings. I'm very much in love with this army, but something puzzles me. If the heirophant dies, the army starts taking wounds. If it is brought back with Djedra's incantation of summoning (if this is possible at all), does the army stop taking wounds?

any tips for WHFB in general would also be greatly appreciated.

I don't think that is possible as the incantation works on existing units and the liche priest is a character who is seperate from the unit if he joins.

Yeah if a character is taken off of the board he is just gone. Same thing for any unit that is completely removed.

A thing to remember is the army doesnt just take wounds, they take leadership tests and for each point they fail the test by is how many models they lose! There is no way to bring back a dead priest either!

it is easily fixed by keep him out of the way and letting the other liche priest face the danger

Okay, thank you very much. Unfortunate as that may be, it is certainly helpful.

That is always a good tactic except when your enemy has something to counter that (ogre gorgers and such)

Well after much careful consideration, if you break their model befor ehand...they cant use it.
I mean, yeah gorgers are a pain but a few well placed guard might be handy ^_^
or a line of bowmen hanging back and get off 2 rounds of shooting might be able to handle it a bit better. ^^
