As long as you're combo'ing with a couple shamans eagle eye + tangling vines/vine arrow seems like a good bet too. Or swarm.

Wait, I thought only non-commanders could be affected by healers because the to-be-healed unit had to be under the command of the healer. Does it just apply the healing to everyone present?

Healing applies to everyone in the province.

This is correct for most cases, but there are exceptions, as not all units can be healed of their afflictions with the 'heal troops' command that 'Healer' commanders have.

Undead for example can not be healed by normal methods. Neither can units with the 'Old Age' tag. For both of these, either The Chalice or Gift of Health are required to remove their afflictions.

This is true, but orthogonal to thejeff's claim. If you have someone or something which is doing a Heal action, it applies to all units in the province, not just the commander who is healing/has the Healing object. E.g. the Chalice will heal regular troops and other commanders in the same province, not just its own commander.
