This is truly an overkill...is steam armor also effective for black knights, because losing 1 initiative would not be problem at all then. But it all depends if you can find Eviln spell and invest in chaos which is not so good for warrior/paladin

Built-in 30% physical/50% poison resistance, immune to mind spells, Black Helmet (-20% leadership for BKs), Staff of the Acolyte Necromancer (-15% leadership for undead), "Dark Commander" (I always remember the KBTL name for it) warrior skill for +7 attack/+2 initiative, Revenge for massive criticals on counter-attacks, Shard from Moro so that he ALWAYS counter-attacks and gets +10 attack, the ultra-powerful Eviln spell to resurrect them... I believe the developers made this possible as a "panic button" for anyone having a hard time with the game.
I'm sure any class could benefit with the use of BKs, especially the warrior and paladin since they have more leadership, and it is their skill trees after all that make the BKs even more powerful.
Even 1 level of Chaos to get level 1 Eviln is acceptable, and late-game could resurrect a lot more than what a level 3 Resurrect does for the living. As for getting the Eviln spell, if not sold at shops, you could always dig for it. I'm at Bolo in my current game and have already dug one up.
If you don't like the idea of going solo unit with them, you could always team them up with Bone Dragons who also benefit from some of the pieces of the BK build.
Then maybe throw in demonologists for more dead bodies via summons, necromancers who also benefit from the undead-specific build...
