I agree with you guys, you can't beat muscle and ignorance.
However, I did learn to my cost to watch the command line to see what spell protections are being cast or immunity various creatures have.

Targeting spell casters with ranged weapons works well causing spell casting failures. Most of my spells used were to remove spell protections or reduce magic resistance.

The worst defense to break was a combination of absolute immunity and protection from magical weapons. Combine this with very high magic resistance and you've got a tough cookie.

Mislead is a great spell in battle - its fast to cast and takes the heat off your spell caster giving them time to cast those more powerful but time consuming spells.
