From one of the programmer updates from 2022:

Summon Death does not target brigades immune to death magic such as undead and exempt from the spell such as flying brigades. Note: only flying brigades like Wyverns are checked, not groups with artifacts like Winged Pegasi due to the possible mixture of troop types. Brigades without immunity to death magic and with the lowest experience (green) are targeted first working up in experience as needed to eliminate the required number of brigades. If the opposing group is Army Group sized then +1 brigade is added to the total.

That would seem to suggest DW kingdom troops would not be affected by a summon death, but other troops would.

This needs to be clarified. Pretty sure this is for special troops immune to death, like undead and such. The kingdom trait that vball posted I’m pretty sure is the correct answer. But if Mike gets on maybe he can clarify it.

This needs to be read separately from the other language about kingdom immunity. The AN and DW kingdoms are immune to death spells.

The programmer notes just clarify that kingdoms subject to the death spell may yet have brigades that are immune.

Got it, makes sense, thanks!
