Its easier than trying 6 times to keep to acceptable casualties.
besides, anytime you have a major mage battle, i have to
cast project image and summon 6 skeleton warriors, unless the encounter area is in a area that requires a load
cast stoneskin on all party who can
cast protection from evil if I plan to use demons
cast protection from energy if its a dragon or beholder
cast spell turning for my mages
equip one handed weapons and shields for the warriors with two handed weapons
quick item any devices or weapons I might need
any mage battle or major battle requires several minutes of preparation
this encounter killed off half my characters 6 times running. it is not easy. the lich uses symbol death whick killed my favorite skeleton warriors, beholder fried them with a death spell, and the demon turned them hostile.
pissed me off until I figured it out.
