I have reworked the spell and made the spell coding similar to that of Resurrection. However, Reincarnation gives the raised unit an artifact which will randomly determined its new form.
The original Reincarnation spell would change the unit instantly to a random type of unit, but would not update the level modifiers until after combat. Also, the original Reincarnation would not work on Lord Class units, which include Balkoth, Legendary Champions, Brunhilde, Siegfried, and Legendary Creatures.
The Artifact, much like the Scroll of Faith takes a random number. After the artifact rolls the random number, it looks to see what number was assigned to which form.
This makes the Reincarnation spell itself more efficient.
A combination of coding ideas taken from Resurrection, Scroll of Faith, and Grace of the Phoenix allowed me to come up with this improvement for a very complicated Reincarnation spell. Ergo, with the combination of Artifact and Spell data, the over all effect was simplified and much easier to control as a result.
