One of my favorite set of feats for Necromancers- and any undead spellcaster by extension- are the "Fell" metamagic feats from Lords of Madness:

Fell Animate LoM p26 Living foes slain by your spell may rise as zombies. Fell Drain LoM p27 Living foes damaged by your spell also gain a negative level. Fell Frighten LoM p27 Living foes damaged by your spell are also shaken.

The first one is s especially nasty if your players are prone to adventuring with a bunch of hirelings or less powerful allies in order to have their own little army (offsetting whatever horde you might throw at them).
