Ice Maidens are very fragile, but with such long range, they can and should be used as back line support. However, this long range makes their spells a little tricky to pull off where needed unless the player insists on sending them forwards purely to cast their spells. But with such low defense, any moderate ranged targeting would likely have them killed before they get chance to cast their spells, so they should never be left by themselves. Regardless, their long range frost attacks are welcomed by the other High Elven archers to help combat missile-resistant units, and their Freeze spell can be very valuable when used against the right targets.
