Okay! So the key is to simply avoid to get cursed or horror marked. Does magic resistance counter curses and horror marks?

Of course, getting Cursed on a failed MR check is usually better than getting Disintegrated. Except for immortals.

I don't MR helps against Curse or Horror Mark. I've never noticed a unit not get the icon if the spell effect hit them.

I would have to agree... when I've seen the spell "Doom" get casted it hits all units. From what I've seen no one can resist.

Hum I thought I already saw the regular curse and horror mark spell fail though.

I'll take a look when back home.

Well, a cursed SC is almost dead. Sounds like the ultimate SC counter if you can't kill them directly.
