Hmmm....the Mage and Cleric versions of this spell might be different. I know in BG1, it could only be cast by Clerics, and they could indeed create 1 skeleton per caster level. I remember wandering around Baldur's Gate with 30 Skeletons because I'd Charmed an Evil Cleric (who happened to be Level 10) and used up her Animate Dead spells.
