Here is my typical way for playing paladin on hard and impossible:
Like written also from other authors in other threads, in my oppinion the most helpfull use of this resurrect skill is: Bring it as fast as possible to level three.
Get Moron Dark as "part time"-companion and go for "Splinter of darkness". If you got the splinter, take a single stack of Black Knigths (Unlimited retaliation with splinter and try to max fenzy). No other units. With adrenaline skill, power of darkness and teleport casting you can reach every point of the battlefield before the enemy has its first turn. Resurrection during battle is done via evlin spell. If you still losssome BK they are resurrected by the paladin skill.
You can combine it with a dragon stack for pick up chests in no boss battles (put the dragons into the reserve slot during boss battles). And I dismiss Moro Dark after I got the splinter and use Elenihel (Wanderer Scrolls for less). Then I go for the power of Darkness skills of the Migth tree, rage control and fenzy
+ Transmute from Magic skill tree (together with well of mana belt and mana accelerator of your dragon you got a lot of mana). Also collect artefacts that boost undead units (like the helmet), rage (banner of true faith+singing dagger+bracelet of fury=+40 rage and mana (portrait of ice queen+ perfect shoes+ magician cape+scaly bracelet=+80 mana). By max out the chaos, distortion magic I am not so big in INT, but due to artefacts and lot of mana I can cast very often.
And btw. do not kill the Necromancer in the driller underground. There you can exchange dwarven units for Black Knigths. I have 100+ in the second reserve slot for level up and when I use the wanderer Scrolls (+leadership) for boss battles.
