Create an undead horde, sic them on a town, raise the dead of both sides, repeat until the town runs out of people you can find. Raise all corpses you find as you leave town. Fast-travel between a few towns and other places as your undead army grows.
Ehh, awesome idea, but wouldn't that generate unlimited hair zombies and things like that?
...No, those only happen by butchery. And if so, what's the problem?
Okay, how about finger or toe or tongue zombies?

You have a fine control of what you raise as an adventurer necro.

On a side note, will my fort be crawling with undead once the necrodorf pays me a visit?
Possibly, it depends on how fast it reaches the crypts or refuse piles.

You can't raise any of those, only hands, heads, and things connected to them. You can't even raise a headless cat.

It'd be pretty badass if you could raise an army of hands that just strangle people... It'd be even more badass if they dug underground and when you raised a hand, they all came out of the ground and just cause MURDER 8)

Jee wilikers, I think Highmax is near invulnerable, must have been dunked in the river styx like achilles was.
Just make sure he wears a boot.

We're lucky we won't have to face an army of undead livers that metabolise all our booze...

I think the booze is the least of your worries if that happens... I know this isn't a part in DF, but zombie appendics (I think i spelled it wrong). Suicide bomber zombies FTW!

Appendix.

Getting attacked by an undead inner ear bone would be interesting.

Gives "finger lock" a whole new meaning :P
Its funny when you have a necromancer vs a bronze collossus is testing arena, the colossus will be busy dealing with the corpses over the necromancer so it goes on pretty long

Fingers can't be thralls, only still-living creatures.
...Actually, I don't think fingers can be thralls either, unless you modded them to have the GRASP tag.
