It's far less effort to cast Black Channels on a troll unit, transforming it into an upkeep-free, undead unit. Just dispel the Channels afterwards. Why waste valuable and limited casting skill during a combat to get one or two undead trolls instead of keeping the troll city you're invading after you conquer it?
The undead trolls are great city unrest suppressors btw., as you can fill your cities with undead trolls for no upkeep whatsoever, and they're great defenders too (shamans, halberdiers and war trolls).
