How to beat undead?
I did a 1 skull cemetary mission where I had a decent troup. Maybe 9 people levels 2-3. I beat them well enough...then they started resurrecting kinda from behind and beat me.

How do I beat Wiedergangers or at least stop them from resurrecting? If they can constantly resurrect that makes them kinda impossible to beat or at least very hard, especially for a 1 skull mission.

Each wiederganger should come back only once. For low level group it is good to have all frontline men spear and hold spearwall - and rear men use crossbow. You can also try to put your line in chokepoint so that you need to fight only a few at once.

When you have killed some of them, don't move your line - just wait them to get close. If you are in same hex when ganger comes back he might spawn behind your men.

Wiedergangers only resurrect once or twice without a necromancer and "lethal" attacks such as decapitations and squashing their head will prevent them from reviving

Wiedergangers do rise on their own once after being killed. Just kill them again. You can prevent them from doing so by decapitating them, which can intentionally be done by using a cleavers's Decapitate skill.
Fallen Heroes are an exception to this rule, rising once even if they have been decapitated.

Hold position against zombies. This will keep you from getting surrounded by reanimated ones and preserve your crews precious fatigue. I just had a similar situation as you yesterday. 18 Zed's against my lvl 2-3 crew. I held ground and the slowly ambled into my kill zone 2-3 at a time. Finished them off with only a few minor wounds on my side.

Simple
1) Form a spear potective circle or wall.
2) Use "spear wall" skill
3)???
4) profit!

Yeah, it's pretty much been said, but just don't step on the corpses. For a shield line and don't step forward, no matter how tempting it is. Keeps it nice and simple.

They aren't intelligent enough to avoid spearwalls unlike human enemies, so just hold a hill and turn them into swiss cheese as they close in. They'll always get back up with half health and no armor so another good hit will put them down.

I try to pick up ressurecting units weapons after the first kill. Seems to make them less deadly.

Try to kill the last ones as fast as possible and the battle will be over before they will walk again. When only 4-5 of them left I break the line, surround them and try to kill fast
