Best Undead Minions?

First Post
The topic of best "sleeper" spells got me thinking - what are the best uses for animate dead? I personally prefer skeletal girallons (multiple limbs) and skeletal centaurs with lances (for the charge bonus). Input, comments, war stories, et cetera appreciated.

incorporeal.. go thru walls, ceilings, floors and never rest. chase the PCs everywhere. and drain the life out of them to make more...
 


Skeletal girallons? I love it.

I experimented a lot with ghouls, and found that ghoulish deep gnomes (adding the ability to spider climb) are scary as hell.
 

Although this is Create Undead, and not Animate Dead, I find Mohrgs aren't bad. That tongue attack of theirs is pretty nasty, never misses really, and can take someone completely out of the fight if they get lucky.
 

Yeah, I've used skeletal girallons before - those extra two attacks per round come in, uh, "handy." I've also experimented with applying undead templates to non-standard creatures. I threw a mohrg dire wolf leading a pack of winter wolves at the party once, and they had to take to the air to escape.
