AuthorNECROMANCER faction: Stats, Talents, Tactics, Strategy
NEVER ever bring zombies.

They're awesome units for necros with magic build.
Why? ---> Because they're durable. Magic DE usually focuses on Poisoners, Minotaurs, Ladons. Magic Wiz on Gargs... And Magic Demon on Incends, etc..
On lv8-9 you may find them better than ghosts. With massive HP, Inf. strike, Same damage overall, they may be better for non-Raising necro.
And even in single stacks, they're good units for defending your numerous shooters. If strong stack comes near --> Bang! Retaliation's gone and enemy has -4 atk/def.
Will I need infected zombies at level 8 and why?(I think it is a waste of gold)
They are not a waste of gold. Killing Merc Monsters are easy with infected zombies, combined with vamps and skeleton bows, you can destroy any merc monster at level 8.
for -Bladelord-:
They're awesome units for necros with poisonner build.

Killing Merc Monsters are easy with infected zombies; with them, necro is even better than wiz against monsters.

As might necro, they are sometimes better than ghosts; against heroes using destruction for ex; in such a case, having ghosts is almost as having nothing; I believe it's the same against elves with decent number of druids. In some hunts also I find them better than ghosts.

When you'll get apparitions, they will be less useful, but still can be good in some cases IMO.
How does a necro beat a knight at level 7?
al the same, i dont think IZ are worth the gold you spend... unless youre a millionaire......
might necro is 99% of the time better than magic necro, and magic necro is very very specialized to deal with specific types of opponents, and youll be hardly using it. and as i said, how many of the battles you do are monster quest? for me its very very rare, not worth it. im doing amaizingly well with might necro....
might or magic necr...which ones better???
depends on your lvl and what kind of combat u are interested in.

Until lvl 8 raise build is very effective for all kinds of combats. At lvl 8 is a good opportunity to switch to might build with only few points in knowledge (maybe 2).
as i said, how many of the battles you do are monster quest?
On last 3 pages of log, wich represents 120 fights, 15 are monsters (each are victorious); on those 3 pages, I got 54 victories, wich means I got more than 10% monster fights, and monsters are responsible of more than 25% of my victories XD
How does a necro defeat a wizard at level 7?

I have fought 4 of them and I only won once (And that guy wasnt full arted (but he was not min arted also) and he wasnt equipped with mini arts)
@Hewrin those questions of how to defeat an opponent at a specific lvl are hard to answer, as for instance I can't remember how i played at lvl 7. Better proide some battles and then we could look and give tips on how to improve your play.
Hello, i just recently switched to necro from night.
i upgraded most buildings, including the skeletal bow one.

What are the best talents for level 6 necro?
thanks in advance.
I've been running a dark magic necro at lvl 10 - found its very useful in group battles.
@52

basic erudition
I cant beat anyone at lvl 3 with necro..im not good at tactics or anything, but for example dark elfs are too strong, rogues and minotaurs just run over necros..any suggestions tho?
All your stat points gained by leveling up (2) should have gone to knowledge to get extra raising. You may want to buy an oblivion pot to redistribute them.
Did that now, I thought the same thing tho although im not very rich so wasn't sure if i'd spend money there.Thank you anyways :()
I would also suggest recruiting 5 skellies, and splitting them into one man stacks. Use them to shield your army, and to take away retaliation strikes before your ghosts/zombs get to hit. As a nice side bonus, when those skellies die, your zombs will get enraged granting them some free attack points.
I got few questions more although they are offtopic, but :

Where to get diamonds?
How to do Merchanies Guild quests or smth?
