Umm... one problem: combat spells effect the people in the AOE at _casting_.
If you anchor it, the casting time is when you anchor it, not when it goes
off. Now, unless you're really lucky, the only people who will be in the AOE
when it is cast and when it goes off will be your friends and comrades. :0)

A fireball would at least have an elemental effect to cause damage. Better
yet, stick to damaging manipulations.
