I only played BoF IV, so I barely know what the above posts mean...
Hmmm, Faerie Spells were nice...
*Ursula does "Shadowwalk" with a gun that hits all*
*Nina casts "Faerie Attack" (the big bomb, it hurts more)*
*Ryu casts "Faerie Charge"*
Lol, that always racked up hits for me...

And "War Shout" does wonders when you have more or less 15 faeries in your Troops and having Scias/Cray/Ryu/Ershin in your party...
"Transfer" was also nice... It costs 20 AP but heck...
*Ershin casts "Transfer" to anyone who needs AP*
*Nina & Scias cast "Vitalize" or "Vigor" to heal everyone and give 10 AP to the rest of the party*
*Ershin goes to back row to heal the 20 AP he lost the next turn*
