How does The Ark work in combat? Specifically,

1. Are all non-holy creatures 100% likely to be diseased, blinded and damaged (page 280) -- or do they get a saving throw(s)?

2. If they have a saving throw(s), are the non-holy creatures forces to make saving throws every round of combat?

3. Does the length of combat have any impact on the results of being "Arked" ?

I have no concrete answers for you, just observations from using it over several battles and trying to determine for myself what is happening.

1. There seems to be a distance effect. It does not cover the whole battlefield, just like 20.

2. Not all units in range are affected, so I believe a savings throw takes place. With that said, most units ARE affected within the range radius.

3. I am unsure. I only have conjecture here, no observable evidence. It would make sense that they have to save every turn or every 3 turns or whatever.
