Ulm gets crossbowmen for defense. If they manage to hit the mage, that will take it out quite rapidly. But if the mage is far enough in the back that doesn't work.
Rlyeh gets an Illithid Lord commander who can whack the mage with a mind bLast - it's a question of whether the spell works before the false horrors scare all the chaff away.
Marignon gets crossbowmen too, but only with their "second stage" PD.
Other races get slingers but that is not useful against anything

Yeap, and of course mage is located far in the back and in the corner - lesser horrors are flying.
If you want to be absolutely safe, you can also take 2-3 archers with you, and postion them in chessbaord mannerfar in the back, while your 100gp mage keep casting 2 fasle horrors per turn.
