Animate Dead is a 3rd level spell in the School of earth magic. It permanently reanimates killed undead, allied units similar to Resurrection spell. However, unlike Resurrection, the effect is always permanent regardless of whether the hero has Earth Magic or on what level it is. Thant the Necromancer specilizes in Animate Dead spell.
Discussion
Basically Animate Dead is a better version of Resurrection, because its casting cost is cheaper and as a level three spell it is easier to acquire. It "resurrects" undead creatures as efficiently as Resurrection resurrects alive creatures. However, in comparison
Naturally, the downside is that Animate Dead is only useful to undead creatures.
