What does an attack with a Character die require, and can an immobile Leader like Saruman provide it?

The attacking army needs at least one Leader or Character. A Leader who can't leave his region, such as Saruman, can still be the required Leader: he joins the attack and the battle, and is simply left behind when the army advances, since advancing is optional. Additional Leaders may stay unassigned.
