Legion of Death and Summoning

[Jedimasterwiggy]

Hi all,

Looking at Death armies in matched play and working out if a combination actually works. With a Deathrattle force and support I get someone to summon a Skeleton unit within 9 inch of a Wight King from a Legion of Death Battalion. Can they then benefit from his March of the Dead bonus move or as it is a Battalion do all the units from it have to be deployed and the reinforcement pool is unable to be part of battalions?

The March of the Dead rule states it affects "the Wight King and all units from the Legion of Death..." so no, summoned units (who aren't part of the battalion) can't benefit from it. The moral of this story is not to waste your valuable wizards summoning skeletons and instead summon only Mornguls.
