The Tuatha mages use them as well, and if this isn't enough you could give them an earth-4 blessing.

I agree here. Found the combo javelin/lesser fear (death-4) work fastest, as long as the sidhe cover at least the entire frontline of the squad they're attacking. Rout in the 2nd combat turn should be sufficient, shouldn't it? And than there's always the possiblity to back up the fear with the Panic-Spell ..
By the way, going for an Water/Earth/Death-blessing Pretender gives nices complementary searching abilities to the air/nature pics on the commanders.
