ryleh : mindbLast question

[Boron]

the mindbLast attack of the illithids is negated through magic resistance .
i planned to take magic 3 domain scale but if i would take drain 3 instead would that help my illithids much to make their mindbLast more efficient ?

and is there a commander in the game which is mindbLastimmune ? only mindless beeings can be mindbLast immune and a commander can never be mindless right ?
or does a commander enchanted with MR increasing items has such a high MR that the mindbLast of the illithids can only hit him with an open ended attack throw and so with such a small chance that its not worth the risk ?

which units are mindless and flying ?
i remember spring hawks and air elementals

since i plan using the unarmed illithids because they have not much resource cost / strat move of 2 against them they are probably quite efficient


are the illithids in general one of the quite good national troops which i even can use in lategame quite well ( then of course together with other good units ) or are they quite useless in mid-lategame ?
and has a horde of illithids quite a chance to kill a sc ? or is my fear true that their mr can almost not be overcome by the illithids mind bLast only like 1 of 100+ mindbLasts hits ?
