[QUOTE="Beowolf, post: 3071147, member: 18770"] just hold on a sec, mabye its just that i think that at higher levels that skels and zombies are not nearly effective or useful but think about it, how is having tons of extra undead overpowered? even if you pimp out your legions with good equipment and mabye some magic goodies they will still get their ass kicked. even going with undead monsters instead of just huminoids has its limitations, especially since they will lose most good abilities. at higher levels they cant cut it compared to most tough beasties, and it was never like you had the best corpses for animation just lying around. i just find that necromancers are limited in the undead that they can effectivly create and control, really skels and zombs being the only trustworthy minions and the only ones who wont attack you when you create them, plus its a pain for good/neutral necs who cant make any decent undead that wont ravage the country side if they turn their back. and how about go with allowing the 5X or somthing and just make the components more expensive or do somthing like force the wizard to go into a trance or somthing to proporly controll all of the undead.
