The most powreful class for them is a necromancer, no doubt. Advantage: Summon Armies fast from mana which means you need to spend your resources only for the buildings. Around lvl 30, with 2 rings of the liche, Robe of the Archmage,staff of regret  you have 1 sec mana regen per sec basically, and once you have Altar of Shadows, you can summon Doom Knights, Liches, Vampires fast (dont forget to use Dark Portal). Circlet of thull is also handy: summon quasits, who can build way more faster than zombies. Also, you can summon group of zombies to send them into the mines. Arcane magic grants wast power also: Faster manaregen, cheaper spells, and the most useful spell: Corruption. This spell causes all summoned creatures to join your side (also affect Goblins from Gobshooters, spiders from spider eggs and from killed spider priestesses and sometimes also the split treants from Ancient treants)).

So you will be a true caster. (also notice that at the Black Libary you are able to resaerch new spells!) However, due to The Ring of The Liche: you will be able to cast lvl-2-3 spells fast as you learn them, it also means -200 health (at lvl 30 this means around 8 health without any health bosster items), so your hero cannot participate in combat, stick to your base, build a tower into you can escape,and set hero attidtude to cowardly.(usually summon some Doom knights to protect your base). Due to the high intelligence and the Memories skill, your units will be summoned at high levels. I really enjoyed playing as an undead necromancer, the army of liches and doom knights will annilihate anything.(especially when you buff them with Vampirism)Also, if you need to convert something, summon some vampires.

Greatest Counters: Blackguards (Invisibility), Illusionists with offensive spells.

Against normal towers: Skeletons will do the job.

Against any other: Wraiths /Shadows

Research the the Feast of Garok skill at the Deathkeep and after a massacre, if you dont need to reanimate the corpses, simply summon a zombie and transform the corpses into resources.
