Hoplites were always a big no-no for me. Hypaspists are easier to build with a closer gold to resources ratio and they have two strat move while still being able to mop the floor with almost all other heavy infants

So body ethereal isnt a self spell? The description sure sounds like it is. 'The caster's body becomes hazy and transparent...'

Nope it seems to target a square. You can easily make etherial armies.

If it is before turn 20 you should try it out. It makes great use your your Acolytes.

After turn 20 or so you have better things to do with your casters. But before then I find that this really helps expansion.
