Guys, you do know that mixed heroes work much better than magic heroes, don't you?

@Hell_Wizard
Yeah 
-----------------
The choice of skills really depend on which faction you are, and which hero you have.
I only find necromancy useful when playing as undead (probably like everyone else here).

wisdom
earth magic
logistics
intelligence ( your spell points are virtually endless)
water magic ( cure, dispel, prayer, clone, teleport, forgetfulness)
tactics
offense
ballistics
are my favorites.
And my opininons for others:
armorer: i think %15 defensive bonus is useless. Defending is not a good strategy in this game anyway. But if you have an armorer specialist, then i think it quite worths it.
sorcery: i rarely cast offensive spells.
resistance: half of your army will take the damage from slow anyway. Curing them is simplier.
First aid: Not bad, if you have creatures with high hit points.
Leadership and luck : they are useful, i take them, if they come, but i prefer to collect artifacts, which makes your morale and luck higher.
air magic: haste is important. With the combination of intelligence, dimension door and fly magics are powerful. But i think town portal is sufficient.
fire magic: i don't think this school of magic is important. Most of the spells are damage spells, you can use them without learning this school of magic quite efficiently.

You underestimate this skill a lot...really a lot!

But casting cure costs a spell, while resistance is priceless..

You said yourself defense is no good strategy. So what can be a better weapon than offense in combination with mass haste?

Fire magic could be a game winner with sacrifice or berserk, mass curse is a very nice spell to have too. Blind on exp. fire is just perfect for creeping.

I slow them down, and wait the turn, let them come closer. Or, because I like tactics, my troops are already in the half way. They engage the enemy mostly without needing haste.
If your army is strong enough to destroy the enemy in 1 turn, then haste is better. Else i think slow is stronger.

Oviously it varies a lot from game to game...
2 skills are always good and i take/took them in 99% of my games, Logs and Earth Magic.
Offense, Armorer and Tactics are almost always recommended.
Pathfinding, Archery and Air Magic are very good in many situations, but not always.
Fire & Water Magic & Intelligence are powerful if you have the right spells, but i skip them in at least half of my games because the good stuff like berserk, sacrifice or prayer isnīt always around and it can be a gamble to take those skills early.
Thatīs it i guess Skills like Ballistics or Mysticism are usually a pisser when offered =P

Here we go....
Leadership - at least I can use other troops without penalty
Offense - 30% extra damage, lol! Need I say more?
Armourer - anything to protect my poor troops
Archery - an offence skill for my shooters never goes astray
Logistics - Nuff said!
Wisdom - any hero is useless if he can't cast magic arrow!
Earth Magic - slow, ressurrection and implosion...
Luck - double damage from level 7's!
PS: Lith, I still reckon you're a beginner. No idiot chooses three magic schools let alone FOUR.

Have you ever heard something like "Berserk"?
