if you clone skeletons, you really don't need magic... although I think a vampire, lich, or knight clone would be more effective... but that's just my opinion...
the warriors of the Necropolis are good, and they become decent mages later on, but I think Tanta is the most interesting character to play with (at maximum difficulty)... with his ability to revive the dead, he can clear out everyone in the early game with 20 vampire lords and at least 50 mana, without touching anyone in the city... with him, you can safely create a second, stronger army, but with a hero without resurrection, and move in different directions, expanding your presence.
