Orc Armor spell in Warcraft I?

I've completed the human campaign in Warcraft I and II but haven't really 
played too far as Orcs yet. However, when I modem-played against a friend
of mine, for the first time, he played Humans and I played Orcs. I quickly
developed several Necromancers to summon Demons but whenever I tried to 
cast that Armor of Invulnerability or whatever the name is, it would drain 
half their hps and eventually they just died before they ever made the trek 
to the battlefield. What's up with this spell? Can it only be cast on a
unit about to die? Only in the red? Really short duration? Anyone with
answers is appreciated!

The taking of half your life is the price for useing that spell on a
unit. The unit is impossible to damage, but has to give up part of his
life to have it cast on himself. Something still has to kill them.
They can't just die for no reason. If the spell is running out before
they get there then get closer before you cast the spell.

The unholy armor spell is time based so just cast it in the thick of 
battle and watch your enemy die in front of your unbeatable army.

The spell takes hit points off the character you are casting the spell on. 
The spell doesn't last very long either.
