 ===== Burnout communions ===== ===== Burnout communions =====
 Burnout communions is where you let the masters burn the slaves out to cast more powerful spells. It requires the least effort and is thus the second most useful. You use more masters than in an access communion and fire away. You can do stuff to postpone the point in time when your slaves burn out, but if the battle goes long the slaves will eventually die. As noted in the [[naaira-communion#making-stablererer-communions|stablererer communions]] section you can do things to make your burnout communion last longer, but if the battle goes on for long enough your slaves... will... die. Hopefully you win the battle in the process. Burnout communions is where you let the masters burn the slaves out to cast more powerful spells.

 +If you know that you will burn out your slaves you might want to consider casting **??Life after Death??** if you can. That way your slaves will return from the dead to offer their services to you again once your masters have sucked all life energy out of them.

   * For example, the classical turbo communion of ??Gygja#3397?? masters with ??Jotun Werewolf#3433?? slaves rely on the spell AI's love for ??Horde of Skeletons?? to overwhelm the opponent with chaff. For extra spiciness one Gygja casts ??Rigor Mortis?? while another casts ??Grip of Winter??. You get the idea.   * For example, the classical turbo communion of ??Gygja#3397?? masters with ??Jotun Werewolf#3433?? slaves rely on the spell AI's love for ??Horde of Skeletons?? to overwhelm the opponent with chaff.

-Illwinter, in its infinite wisdom, or maybe due to sloppiness in its coding, has decided that as long as **any** communion master remains on the field of battle **all** slaves will remain slaves indefinitely. This means that linebacker communions are hardcountered by one mage casting ??Communion Master?? or ??Sabbath Master??.+Illwinter, in its infinite wisdom, or maybe due to sloppiness in its coding, has decided that as long as **any**((friendly **or enemy**)) communion master remains on the field of battle **all** slaves will remain slaves indefinitely.

 So good luck using Linebacker communions. If you succeed I applaud you. So good luck using Linebacker communions. If you succeed I applaud you.
