Anyone have any sneaky / clever Necromancy tricks or spell combos they'd like to share? My Pale Master always needs inspiration. Comments - suggestions - baseless speculation always appreciated.

Step 1) Send in your horrible undead minions, while watching from a raised location.
Step 2) Cast cloudkill.
Step 3) Watch.
Since the undead are immune to the horrible Con drain, they'll be able to finish off survivors. Also, use a waves of fatigue or waves of exhaustion spell into the cloudkill- again, the undead are immune.

Darn. I hoped this thread was about neat things to inflict by the medium of the "mysterious old lady" and similar.
Things like:
Every time the character lies, a toad hops out of his mouth (stolen from Ars Magica).
Dogs and horses hate the character.
The character is afflicted with boils unless covered in dung.
The character is unable to sleep within the confines of a city.
The character is afflicted with horrible odor.

Like the cloudkill idea.
In a modern campaign, Hawaii would acquire great strategic signifigance because of its large natural stores of obsidian. The nation that controls Hawaii could raise huge undead armies and invade its weaker neighbors.
Mwahahahaha.

On the same line of thinking...
Send in undead horde, then cast nonlethal/subdual Fireballs.
A Maximized Empowered Vampire's Touch is always a nice way to start a combat. Heck, cast two or three. Temporary HP stack! (...I think.)
Be ready for Mass Cure X Wounds, or even worse...Mass Heal. Your undead minions all get damaged while all of their hard work of wounding those meanie PCs gets erased. That's not fair! Boot to the head to the cleric that tries to do this.
Here's a good one for a cleric necromancer. Death Touch followed by Animate Undead. If your players have never faced having one of their dead friends rise up as an undead and start beating on them, then they haven't faced horror. Especially for the player of the dead PC. And the animated PC can't be Raised afterward. Also, a wand of Death Knell is nice. Those bonuses stack! Plus the party will have to deal with acquiring an evil wand as treasure.
