Repeating your opening post is not going to do much for you, nor is your insistence that horror marks must be removed upon resurrection. You've been given advice. It's up to you to try and act on it.

Can you READ E-N-G-L-I-S-H? Your advice doesn't work.

The horror bypass the 144 guards, attacks and kills my god, on turn one!

1. Guards don't work (only work on minor Horrors).
2. My God doesn't even get to cast any spells.
3. Magic Items (armor, weapons, etc.) so far havn't done any thing.

If something can kill a magic user with 144 guards, level 4 magic in four areas, with 4 gems each, good armor, and get's taken out on turn one of a fight I THINK THIS IS A LITTLE UNBALANCED, DUH!
Gee,
And perhaps if no one else has a problem, perhaps *you* are a little 'duh'.

There are many things in here that do work:
1. High MR. think.. 28ish.
2. Kill the horror first.
3. Script returning. Have another mage cast an AoE spell that will damage you.
4. Put yourself in the middle of size 4 guards. Don't just give yourself guards.
you have to tactically place yourself in the middle of a square of them. It really does matter the size and placement of the guards.
5. Cast Phoenix pyre (or blink); be earth blessed; have amulet of resilience, boots of messenger. If your reinv (or regen) is high enough.. you'll outlast the combat.
6. Take an immortal god.
7. Stop using items that horrormark you.
