86. Road construction (or at least path) - Get a bunch of undead and have them march along where your road goes, enough of them will beat the ground into a smooth path.
87. Stage assaults on towns so you and your party can save the day, cementing your status as adventuring heroes.
89. 1/1 wall: chain a bunch of mindless undead to a wall and have them grapple and Slam/Claw anyone who walks by. For added fun, build a space between the undead to contain a weapon (and potentially ammo for ranged weapons) and have them attack intruders with that

A good way to drum up business, if they buy something/convert then you can let them leave by the back door.
A ranged weapon like a bow may be useful if people try to get cute and throw rocks until they bust some of the skeletons. They hardly stop people from climbing over the walls if they are broken.
You need to go back and take more overlord classes it seems. This is 'Iron Curtain 101' here.

5' wide hallway, along the length of which are dozens of skeletons hanging from manacles as well as chain belts holding them to the wall. It turns out the manacles at their wrists are a ruse; they can reach a full 5'. Anyone walking down said hall is constantly attacked.
If you want to get really creepy, make them some kind of sentient skeleton, like a Skeletal Champion. The creatures have levels of magus and can add spells to their claws or make grapples followed by spell-enhanced claw attacks. What's really creepy though is that NONE OF THEM WANT TO BE HERE!
The belts killed them/animated them. Each was a prisoner, left to die on these walls. Once horribly tortured by their own slow, agonizing death their skeletons were reanimated and controlled by some evil doer. Now they are forced to attack you but the whole time they're cradlng you, trying to kill you, they're whispering impossibly through their rattling jaws "I'm sorry; I'm so very sorry. One more soul, and then I rest. Sleep now; you sleep so I may sleep too, please!?!"
