Is the protocol of the undying legions a battle tactic or strategic ploy stratagem? I am asking because I don't know if I can resurrect the Necrons during my opponent's turn using the overlord ability.

It is a strategic ploy.

You can still use the strat to resurrect Necrons during your opponents turn but you can't do it for free.
