The problem comes when those Hydras are backed up by their mages (who are also all Priests). You'll lose your Undead in droves.
So, some suggestions. First, get some Undead Horsemen.
Second, research Terror. Spam it on the Hydras.
Are these Hydras getting buffed at all? What other units are on Pythium's side?

I ll try these.
Waves of undead: how do you mange to get those? The thing is that at turn 15-20 I can not manage to get waves and waves of undead from the few Thaumatugs I have available for battle (around 6 of them at this stage). At most I could muster around 20-25 undead units in one turn and that means they are not doing anything else that turn. so to compile a wave of around 70-80 I mneed to have these thanums stuck 3 turns doing nothing but reanimate?
Horsemen: indeed, but they usually get stuck with troops before striking any commander. These hydras come acompanied by around 20- 30 battle vestas/principes. Worst case scenario around 50 of them.
Terror: that spell is high in the research tree, innit? the most I can have now i think is the level 1 Frighten? this may be enough?
No mages with the Hydras at this stage, Pythium has them all researching, as opposed to me. I have all my thaums spread in the map gobbling up indies, but as I said the ones close enough to the hydras are only around 5 or 6 of them.
Thanks,
