Dracholich or Lich is targeted with Bullseye. They roll Cantrip. Can they cast fade on themselves to no longer be able to be targeted?

The end result is what you want, but not for the reason you might think.

Quote:
Fade Casting Cost: 3 Spell List: Undead
Target one of your Undead units. Until the end of your next turn, the target unit 1) cannot roll during a melee or
missile action or during a dragon attack, 2) cannot be the target of a missile, melee, or dragon effect or be taken as a
casualty for this damage, and 3) cannot be promoted. Multiple castings target multiple units.


Let's break it down.
Quote:
1) cannot roll during a melee or missile action or during a dragon attack


They aren't trying to roll.

Quote:
2) cannot be the target of a missile, melee, or dragon effect
They were the target prior to the spell taking effect, so you can't undo the past.

Quote:
or be taken as a casualty for this damage


Bingo!

So they are targeted, but between targeting and resolution of the damage, they become immune to that damage.

Side effect of this, is that once the SAIs (like Bullseye) are resolved by the attacking army, the defending army rolls for saves. The unit that was just Faded, cannot roll as part of the army anymore. BTW, if Fade was able to "untarget" the unit, then the attacker could just choose a different target. So this is better.
