1. Can Afflications be cured by spell?
|
Afflictions can be cured by commanders who have the "Heal Troops" order. These commanders include, but are not limited to:
Arcoscephale Priestesses, Arch Bishops of the Sacred Shroud, and one of the T'ien C'hi national heroes.
The faery queen summoned by the "Faery Court" spell has the ability to cure afflictions.
These commanders cannot cure afflictions caused by old age. I'm not sure if the game differentiates between afflictions caused by old age, and afflictions caused by battle damaged to people who have the old age symbol. Commanders are also unable to cure the afflictions of undead units.
The global spell "Gift of Health" gives units a 10%*(province dominion level) boost to hitpoints, and cures afflictions of any unit (including undead) in the pretender's dominion.
The artifact "The Chalice" cures afflictions for all units (including undead) in the province where it's carrier is located.

2. Will Afflications go away on there own over time? If so, does "resting" increase the speed with which they go away?

They don't.

3. Can units become "diseased" and is this considered an afflication (with red hearts) that spreads from unit to unit within a squad (or within an army). Is there anything in the manual about this?

Disease is an affliction, but is not contagious. Disease can be spread on the battlefield by a unit with the disease cloud ability, such as the Master with the Iron Crutch for T'ien C'hi, certain units, or a death spell that causes disease on the battlefield.
