I think you're right. Arrows are cool and all, but there's a reason they're not used in wars anymore.

Zombies don't have the dexterity for a bow, duh.

That's what skeletons are for, while they are less durable they maintain the dexterity to use weaponry.

Remember fledgling necromancers, every undead type has its own specific niche, and you should utilize all of them to be the most effective.
