Re: Devil Review
As long as you are playing on a somewhat large map ( anything larger than Aran with 8 players or ) then what Soapyfrog said is pretty much the way to go: make soul contracts. And make lots of them. Blood goes into Ice devils, arch devils, equipment for the ice/arch devils, soul contracts. Pretty much in that order.
As for leading all of those devils well you have a lot of options. Those arch/ice devils are decent leaders ( and you are giving those ice devils boots of flying right? right! ). Your demonbred if you are playing base Abysia are fine leaders as well. Banes/Banelords are also fine leaders ( agains with boots of flying ). Vampire lords are superior undead leaders ( 125 if I remember correctly).
As for counters to hoards of devils, you need SC's and tough one. Wimpy SC's need not apply. And wraithful skies helps a lot. One SC who can tank the devils and one caster at the back who casts wrathful skies and retreats works wonders.
But other than that ... there ain't a whole heck of a lot that can be done to devils.
