This happened in Dragon's Eye Level 2, near the area where the priests of Talon are found. I paused my party just before the narrow passageway that leads to the temple area and sent out my thief hidden in shadows to scout out the area. He spotted a troll and engaged it in order to lure it back to where the rest of my party was waiting.
Well, not only did the troll follow, but so did the priests and about 4 or 5 more trolls. The first monster appeared, followed immediately by about 4 priests, so I had my mage cast a fireball that did good damage - all monsters were at least "hurt". Then she followed up by web, after which I sent in my paladin and fighter (each with a ring of free action)to massacre 'em while they were hopelessly held immobile by the web.
I like Web!! Looks like it's going to be a spell my mage will be memorising often!
