Default Re: how deal with etherial enemies?

Another important point: although you can't easily give magic weapons to your troops, you *can* give them to your *commanders*. All weapon items count as magical weapons and can damage ethereal creatures. The Astral Weapon spell also allows the caster's weapons to damage ethereal beings (and negate armor too).

So try equipping some Sidhe Champions with enchanted swords, thorn spears, or even the Bow of War (fires 13 arrows, all of which hit ethereal IIRC) and let them attack the ethereal enemies.
