I'd say drop down, try to make the larger crystals into more of a 'brain' split apart into however many we could, then make quad-walkers, and then just swarm the human.

What I'm hoping is that we could make a swarm of crystal spiders that overwhelm and strike with deadly precision, then when we have enough become a singular amorphous blob of crystallic mass. That could simply become larger by rolling over it. changing anything we touch into more of ourself. (Think grey goo)

[Aklyon]

How are you planning to sneak up on an angry bull after it stops hearing the cow sounds, though? It'll crush the swarm if it gets a hit on your crystalline forms.

That could be a possibility, if I give the guy a chance to panic. What form do you plan to talk as?

[PyroDesu]

Are you talking to me, or someone else?

'Cause I never said to talk.

[Evergod41]

I never said anything about the bull...

...Well it looked like Conversation.

The bulls isn't really restrained except for3 sides of cage a the guy continuously mooing. If the guy stoops, the bull probsbly won't.

Conversion_Sentient_Intelligent.exe - The order for converting a sentient, intelligent being to more cryswarm.
Target.exe: Human_Being - The target for conversion.
Formation.exe: Walker_Quad - The form for the process.
Conversion_Standard_Brain_Protocol.exe - The method of conversion (The thing we were doing with the rabbits that got us normal - sized cryswarms).
Execute_Run_Conversion_Sentient_Intelligent.exe - The order to perform all actions above Execute_Run.exe.

Divide into two. Assume Small_Flyer with both, sneak attack both in the head/neck/spine simultaneously.

[Aklyon]

Does this sound like it would work? (Update coming)

Crystal: general swarm. 1 kg, 1" by .75". will be gained all of the time unless you guys want more Major crystals.
Major Crystal: Command hubs, space fillers, other important things. Or just for heavier ammo if theres quite a lot of them. 4 kg, 4" by 3.75".

[RAM]

Investigate environmental elements. Surround portions of grass, dirt, pot, wood. Direct mana into samples to incite a more malleable state. Apply a single crystal each to the resulting compounds. Explore effects of compounds on crystals.

[Conrad]

I'd just intend on paralyzing them, not killing them. We want to melt them down to make crystals. The cow at least, maybe we can do something more interesting to the human (like control its brain or sap its intelligence or something).

[Aklyon]

Sapping tha sentry human was already going to happen, the cryswarm isn't (entierly) stupid.
Anyway, Would that system work for converting things into crystals, or would we end up as a giant thousand-part swarm too easily?

Just murder their internal organs

Honestly, without adding artificial constraints (or some super-dangerous enemys), I don't see how you can stop us from growing super-massive since we can grow nearly exponentially, Step 1) fly into forest Step 2) Kill everything that moves that not really dangerous. At that point we should have tons of crystals, and we could split into 5 or so and fly to 5 different forests and clear them and grow until we kill everything.

On the different types of crystal front:
I like the idea of having a multi-crystal system (as opposed to just two crystals) better.
Some examples:
Small crystal: Our regular crystals, weak in everything, size 1, worth 1
Normal crystal: Our major crystals, larger and better then small crystals at everything, size 4, worth 4
Large crystal: Giant crystals that are strong and can take the place of multiple normal crystals, but only as good as a normal crystal in utilizing magic and intelligence/memory, size 16, worth 16.
Flawless crystal: Normal size crystals excellent at utilizing magic and good at intelligence/memory, however are extremely fragile and using them for physical tasks is dangerous due to their fragility, size 4 worth 16
And maybe have different things give different types of crystals (eg. rabbits/birds small/normal, humans give normal/large, wizards/magical creatures give flawless, mythical creatures give large) and the same with different type of absorption.
Not quite sure how well it would fit what you already have in mind for how crystals work, but personally i think it would be nice to have different crystal types.
