Thanks... I may try it with my next party.
Update: Beastlord
Ridiculously easy! I actually didn't get my buffs up before I accidently saw the first bear. I quickly used emotion:hope (awesome spell, by the way) and some minor buffs. My mages immidiately chucked 4 fireballs at the archers and mages, while the tanks held off the war bears. The beastlord sure ain't high on health, and fell quickly. The only damage I took was one of my tanks getting too close to the fireballs
