However regarding your post, are you saying that life draining units (cursed ghosts, ancient vampires) can create new units above your leadership? I always thought they would just heal back up to however many you came into the battle with, like in the HOMM games (minus the rigged ghosts in HOMM2, peasant feast!)
I tried this on KBTL although I think i played a mage ( on either hard or impossible, not sure ) and although it wasnt "no-losses"I actually almost finished the game, was at the big orc just before the final battle, I should really try to finish it sometime although i might've uninstalled the game apparently.
But yeah playing with undead is awesome !, indeed mainly the ( cursed ) ghosts and vampires is sweet but dont forget units like the black knights, necromancers and skeleton archers ( esp with dragon arrow ) they're also are pretty awesome and really under-rated, and even zombies could be amore usefull now with the "Pass" skill.
Also if there's cemetaries around be sure to kite enemies into it, for sweet bonusses.
There were not many places to get the units though, and even less so in this game ( at least at the start ) although diplomacy and some luck with with undead spawns will help alot. So you might have to "cheat" and use the living till you can get a decent army, i doubt no losses is doable but meh who cares really, fun counts and using undead is quite fun imo!
