Re: Falling frost vs. AI hordes
Well, you mentioned Witch Hunters, so you've got a bunch of F2S1 guys running around. How about you set up a reverse communion with a nice big group of them (say 10), in round one all the ones higher in the unit list cast communion slave, the final two cast communion master. Round two, you script your c slaves to something low fatigue, one master casts Phoenix Power and the other one (holding a pearl or two) casts Power of the Spheres. Round three you have a shedload of guys casting effective F4 level Falling Fires. If you have the capability to forge crystal matrixes you could get the party started round two instead of round three.
In the meantime you've set your blocking troops to hold and attack, and of course the AI isn't going to be clever enough to hold their own troops back or script some sort of fire resistance or, heaven forbid, create fire immune thugs.
If you're facing a truly massive horde of troops you might want to give your masters some sort of bow and script them to start firing after they've cast their buffs, but since they're going to be something like lvl 6 or 7 in fire by then (due to bonus from 8 communion slaves) you can probably just get them to join in the general barbecuing slaughter.
I learned how to do this sort of thing from Baalz's must-read guide on communions, which you can find in his signature from his post on the first page of this thread.
