When I said 'coincidence', I meant that the same squad would have dispatched your proposed SC just as effortlessly.

Uhm probably not. You would have held it for 5 rounds and then you would have died as it is certianly immune to thunderstike and probably immune to frozen heart. That is unless your meatshield can actually do damage, which is possible.

Copper Plate or Ring of Tamed Lightning - no reason to let Queens get their freebie armour negating lightning attacks hit home. Won't hurt much per attack but since quickened Thuella (I admit, worst case scenario) hits with lightning six times per turn it will count.

That's true it will hurt. But the problem with the air queens is their defence hence you probably will require both of your misc slots to hit. You may not. It all really depends. Check the SC in question before attacking it is always the best answer.

Actually, in that case, by the end of round two, the archdevil was at fatigue
near a hundred, and at the end of round three was dead. The meatshield was,
of course, undead with a life drain weapon. Not a match in a fair fight, but
certainly able to keep an unconscious enemy down.

And that's the gist of it. Everything has a weak point... When everything
fails, there is petrify and life drain. But still, I am partial to Air queens
and Doom Horrors because you can't ground them.
