1) Holy units lose their Holy status after being killed while having the Life after Death bonus (Death 9). While maybe holy troops like flags/Lava Warriors/Dancers etc were intended to lose their holy bonus (maybe, but I don't think they should!), units with holy magic also lose their holy status (priests/theurgs/etc) which really has to be wrong. Such a defrocked priest can build a temple, but can't preach. Interestingly, if this happens to your prophet he will stay blessed.

2) Blessed units with Death 9 (either a prophet or Shroud) who drown (either from natural means like Water Cult dominion shifts (argh!) or Thetis Blessing running out, or on purpose by removing their water breathing gear) do not get reborn as undead. They really should!

3) Items that allow casting Ritual spells (Crown of the Ivy King being the main culprit) can only be cast as a monthly repeating spell (the 'm' command) by a mage with the magic skills to cast the spell normally. A commander without the proper spell paths will get a message box stating that the spell is too complicated for him, so you have to do it every turn or give it to a mage who has the right skills.
