That can be arranged, you know. Try having some fun with Charm and Hellbind Heart.

I was browsing the spell list while doing research and came across a spell that resurrects a hero from the HOF. Will this work on undead heroes? I don't see why not but don't want to spend the time and gems to research and cast the spell if it won't work on undead heroes.

Nope. He's dead, Jim. Ritual of Rebirth doesn't work on commanders who were undead, with the exception of remummifying commanders who are mummies.

The only ones which are sure to be useful for anyone at all, no matter what context, is heroic quickness and heroic magic resistance.

Iron Will is always a good thing, but Heroic Quickness is double-edged: When it gets high enough, a spellcasting unit will ignore its script after casting its first two spells and do its "final" order as its remaining moves for that turn. This can actually be dangerous, as an mage-SC will then buff itself partially, launch itself into the fray unfinished, and then try to buff while standing in the face of the enemy.
