[/U]The *words* spell in the Crystal defense. If you create one near enemy archers, the effect will be as if your warriors stood next to those archers. They won't be able to shoot!

And I was sitting here wondering why my archers weren't shooting...

I like Divine Retribution the most (it's a very useful spell in long battles with large armies, and I really LOVE those) and Stasis (or whatever it's called) in skilled hands - it's a powerful spell.

At the beginning of the battle, archers are usually protected by friendly troops, and then... there will be more important things to do on the battlefield. Only if you don't have a very good mage, and the only thing he can do is create a crystal, then yes, it makes sense to use it)

IMHO, I only see its usefulness in battles with neutral archers
