You might be on to something... but what do you mean by this?
Just another reference to the fire shield/regeneration combination. The great weaknesses of SG undead (with the exception of the wailing lady and the leaders, obviously) is that they 1) don't do all that much damage per attack and 2) have few hitpoints. Their strengths are 1) their small size which allows them to mob units, 2) their unconventional attacks which can nullify their opponents physical attacks, and 3) their ethereality which makes them hard to hit.

The fire shield/regeneration combination takes advantage of their weaknesses and nullifies most of their strengths.

It would work even better with a naturally regeneration monster like a troll lord.
