How the heck does fatigue and Communion work?

Well the numbers add up. Each communicant is playing his own encumberance for each spell plus his portion of the spell's cost.

Well that pretty much puts a hard cap on the number of masters in a communion. If you place ( for example ) 8 masters with an unlimited number of communicants there is a very high probability that all of the communicants will die.

There was a discussion a while back about what is the correct ratio of communicants to masters, and I guess the answer is that there is no correct ratio. You must limit the number of masters to a small number ( or cast releif every round, even this will not help past round 5 since you have no control ).

Bummer.

And seeing as it's quite possible that casters who were not past of the communion may join after round 5 ( and hence have a high probability of killing every communion slave ) you should limit your army to 3-4 casters.

Bummer.

This greatly limits communion.
