Hmm. This must have been before your wizard got group gate I guess. I've
done the same thing to clear the area long enough for a caster to get
group gate off (does anyone actually use evac or succor?) But, I'll
never forget the time I tried this in the undead tower in lower guk.
Something was beating on our druid as he tried to cast a group gate so I
fired up fear to try to clear a space. It wasn't even 3 seconds later
that most of the tower, including the gargoyles from way out by the
drawbridge were on our butts. Unfortunately the ghoul beating on the
druid resisted so the druid died, followed by the whole rest of the
party about 30 secs later.
