Resurrection Protocols wrote:Use this Stratagem in any phase, when a NECRONS INFANTRY NOBLE or NECRONS INFANTRY CRYPTEK model from your army is destroyed. You can choose to roll one D6 at the end of the phase instead of using any rules that are triggered when that model is destroyed (e.g. the Surrogate Hosts abilities). If you do, then on a 4+, set that model back up on the battlefield as close as possible to where they were destroyed and more than 1" away from any enemy models, with D3 wounds remaining. This Stratagem cannot be used to set the same model back up more than once per battle.

Failure is not an option wrote:Use this Stratagem after taking Combat Attrition tests for a KABAL OF THE OBSIDIAN ROSE unit from your army, but before any models flee. You can shoot with each model that would flee. If the unit is within Engagement Range of any enemy units, each model that would flee can instead make one melee attack. If any enemy models are destroyed by these attacks, no models flee from this unit. Treat the Morale test as having been passed.

Something that came up in my last battle. What is the interaction between these rules? If an Obsidian Rose unit uses "Failure is not an option", and they destroy a Necron character who is subsequently returned to the table via Resurrection Protocols, does the Obsidian Rose unit get to treat the Morale test as passed or not?

Yes, because the model is destroyed

The model was destroyed so you get the benefit. The fact that it came back later is irrelevant.
