The mile-wide mass of vampires are a good candidate, and another are mandragoras. The fatigue attack of a mandragora is not deflectable by anything but MR, and since a single mandragora makes 6! attacks, if you surround the enemy even if he has very high mr you have a rather good chance of fatiguing him out. Also, back it with a black bow of botulf, that feebleminds the enemy thus reducing his mr by quite a lot. Since pretty much all you have to get someone is to hit him with sleep wines 4 times and then hit him more than once every 6 rounds and you have a quaranteed kill. At mr 22 and enemy sc fully surrounded by mandragoras the numbers are on your side.

Also, mandragoras are quite survivable thanks to high hps and the fact that countries that get them also have lots of nature magic for mass protection. And as a Last note, A single nation gets mandragoras and manikins very very cheaply...
