Ok, time for some serious tactical thought here. We were in a bad position while only one of us can attack at Rahotep. At his rate of regeneration, we need a steady amount of damage every round to be able to win this fight. Plus he will probably have some magic as well. Currently, the only one doing any damage is Sol.
First of all, we should bring Eilkhan back into the game: she can fire from above and hope to do some damage. If she could use fire with her weapons that would be even sweeter.
Second, Ahi is not mainly a fighter, but due to his choice of spells, I think he'll be reduced to healing after the next sunburst. Could he come up to the top level after casting it, to give more room near Rahotep?
Third, Kherim and Sol both have to attack, otherwise we can't damage enough. One thing we could try is to have Gaderon levitate one of them (preferably Sol) to create room for Rahotep. If Sol is removed, Rahotep could engage Kherim leaving empty space behind him, where Gaderon would then drop Sol, flanking the mummy. Of course, Rahotep might be too clever for this and stay in his hole, but there is precedent for an intelligent foe failing to consider "the third dimension": I recall one of the star trek movies, probably the wrath of Khan, in which this exact trick is used to defeat him.
Finally, Gaderon should be a main asset. With arcane magic he should be able to dish huge damage, but preferably not in an area manner. If I am not mistaken (I might be), mummies are very vulnerable to fire. Anything fire based and highly concentrated, say a column of fire, could work well here. Unfortunately, I don't have Flame Strike memorized. It would probably have worked well.
Please, let's share ideas here.
