Heroic Reaction: After another player's card's effect destroys a Hero or Berserker Personality Force to the army even if while he is dead (only if the army has one or more units).
If you use this, then play Encircled. Does the dead personality, in fact, still contribute force, as well as your other personality at battle resolution? Since he is dead, he cant be sent home Since theres still one person in the army, he still contributes force?

There is no card I can find called "Encircled."
Mod reminder: Use complete card titles (and Experience levels if necessary) when posting question to help ensure accuracy. Thanks!

The dead personality contributes his force, as long as there is at least one unit in the army.
