Amusing trick.

Soooo you're going to face a paralyze spamming foe.

And you have troops with an area attack - like abysia's heat radiance. How do you get them there?

Set all the troops to guard commander. Give the commander hi mr (and prot from heat obviously in this case).

The units will still follow the commander around, even paralyzed.

There are a variety of uses for this trick. Surprisingly it works with elephants too.

Do you have a savegame available?
I tested with MA Arco 'phants and Illithids, and the 'phants got paralayzed and didn't move when their mounted commander did "hold, hold, attack rearmost".

I'll see if I can dig up the turn I sent to illwinter.
