Default Re: Is Cyclops worth it as a pretender god?

The script was at:
(Air Shield), (Personal Regeneration), (Stoneskin), (Mirror Image), attack closest

at first.

Later, it was:
(Summon Earthpower), (Mirror Image), (Mistform), attack closest

Eventually, it became:
(Summon Earthpower), (Mirror Image), (Mistform), (Eagle Eyes), (Blade Wind), cast spells

But you can also do things like this:

(Mistform), (attack one round), (Shock Wave), (attack one round), (Shock Wave), attack closest

Or, you can leave the final orders blank, and leave it to the AI to decided whether to attack or cast. But even if you tell the unit just to cast spells, he can still trample until he uses his AP up, then cast a spell. Specific scripting cannot go past the first 5 rounds, unfortunately - though I'm hoping we get the "Cast Attack Spells", "Cast Support Spells", and "Cast Summon Spells" orders=)

P.S.

I always put my Cyclops at the way back so he could cast all his spells before being attacked, and at least cast Air Shield and Regeneration before arrows started hitting him.
