Re: Does Holy Avenger apply to communion slaves?
Heck, script a holy astral mage to (Communion Master)(Holy Avenger X4)cast spells and have someone cast Curse of Stones (or Soul Vortex, etc). That would be a GREAT way to spam smite.

Re: Does Holy Avenger apply to communion slaves?
In the manual it says something about the effects of HA being evoked once per battle turn. Is that once per battle turn per unit? Or once per battle turn for that side in the battle?

I can tell you with absolute certainty that each unit can only benefit from, and unleash Holy Avenger bolts once per turn, regardless of how many times they are struck. However, I'm iffy on the total. I think each affected unit can cause one bolt, but it seems spotty - spotty enough that I couldn't tell you for sure that I've ever seen more than 1 bolt per turn.  |

Re: Does Holy Avenger apply to communion slaves?
I'm pretty sure I've seen multiple strikes at the end of a battle, when the last priest gets killed.
Maybe it's one per turn, but they get stored up.

Re: Does Holy Avenger apply to communion slaves?
Being killed while using Holy Avenger will cause 5 strikes, over the next 5 turns. That is also how many turns are run at the tail end of battle, to let poison and such run their course. They are still 1 per turn, they just come in a stream because nothing else is happening - if they die during combat, you can see the free bolts are separated from turn to turn.

Re: Does Holy Avenger apply to communion slaves?
I suggested something like this over a year ago.. it was widely regarded as impractical.
I don't know if it will work - but I suggest sleep clouds. The problem will be that you will have to order your priests to attack, as the AI will deprecate any spells that cause direct damage... Still it should be workable.
