I pretty much use sacrifice to build up/replenish my skeleton archer stacks.

This means either

1. Carrying a huge stack of disposable units in your reserve.
2. Lucking out and finding hypnotize.
3. Using troops with hypnotize effects (eg. demonesses and dryads).
4. Have a single high hp unit (giant, dragon) and use level 1 sacrifice to gain troops without losses.

I tend to go with 3 and 4 but YMMV.

I can't say enough good things about skeleton archers + isharra's whip + poison dagger (if you can find it). Throw dragon arrows on them and watch the slaughter. They are the primary reason I rush to tolerance (the other undead troops are not that great on harder difficulties.)
