How about placing them behind a group that has Attack orders (and/or or inside a group he leads which has Guard Commander orders), and then scripting him to Attack for the appropriate number of turns for his battlefield position, and then cast spells? That way, if you guess right about how long it takes the group to reach the enemy troops, he should be up there with them when he starts casting spells.

Sure! Or you could scatter ten or so bards ahead of your combat troops and script them to cast the songs, hoping that some of the troops get up there before all the bards are killed.

missle units will ruin that, if it worked it'd have limited application.

oops deleted too much in that quote

the guard commander deal is one I forgot to try thanks for reminding me.

Heh. I considered putting in a (/sarcasm) bit, but didn't think it was needed.

As often happens, maybe I was wrong?
