The main problem with necro imo is adapting in map first 2 weeks. They move slow, and they havnt good low level units to make clear path to the mines , etc. What can 50 skels & 15 zombies do against 30 G-elves? Nothing, total nothing. If you play necro, you must grab some higher level units to do job (VL is ideal in this case, but they're so expensiveto build/buy).
Now imagine Necro hero, with 30 zombies, stucked in middle of swamp .. LOL

The necropoils is perhaps the worst starter town in Heroes 3 (something that they haven't quite got rid of in Heroes 4). The first three levels are very mediocre, and the strengths of this town don't kick in until you get enough vampire lords and skeletons to grab much needed resources to invest in dread knights (which is normally in 4 weeks). So, therefore, necropolis is definitely not the best town. Conflux is.

Rampart rules!
Necropolis is really a weak castle, but:
+ on a L&XL maps you can get a great numer of skels-this is a
+ you don't need much resourses, so you can have dragones before the enemy.(there are a lot of artefacts which help to gether more skels)
+ liches, dread knights(with it's beautiful double damage), and vamps(with it's speed & no retal) - are good
+ skeleton tranformer( you can tranform wyviens,hydras... in bone dragons!),
+ cover of darkness(a pissing off thing for the enemy)
+ there are a lot of artefacts
I like to play with
Rampart(kyrre), coz I'm developing very fast with it's castle
Dungeon(Gunnar) is great too.
Allways ready for a fight, SirNicolas

As I see, SirNicolas prefer fast heroes. And i agree with him .
Also don't forget, Necro heroes has one skill slot less (necromancy occupy one)

Necro seems to start out weak, but once you get to Vampires, Liches, and Dread Knights, you begin to see your opps running around with **** in their droors.
