Hmmm. I'm fairly sure I have seen unscripted mages occasionally cast Summon Earthpower.

Drain Life. One of the few spells you can spam for 50 turns without fatigue knocking you out at some point.

Fireball, Falling Fire, Fire cloud, Astral Fire, Fire-anything!

Also Lighting-anything ...

I like the USSR-army-like method: two days of heavy artillery bombing followed by a huge infantry swarm covered by an heaviest mass of tanks.

All in subtlety & shrewdness. Yes.

But can you? You can spam it for 5 turns and then you're at the mercy of the spellcasting AI, which will probably cast Raise Skeletons. Unless you have researched nothing but Alteration.

Sure. Put a Standard of the Damned on a non-caster.

Ah. Well then in that case, you can spam Raise Skeletons ad nauseum too, with Skullface + Amulet of Resilience. In fact you can spam lots of things ad nauseum, from Acid Bolt to Falling Frost. I thought you meant "spam unequipped."

Ahh, this brings up a question... Can you equip a commander with lets say Acid Bolt then convert that commander to a unit. Will it still have the equiped item as a unit? and will it still fire Acid Bolts? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

No, it will not, and so it won't be able to.

Although I keep wondering whether, if you Enslave a Theurg Communicant, he still participates in Communions. Would be a handy thing for Astral Travel/Gateway.
