You've just got to enforce the restrictions. For example, the spell takes 12 hours to cast so you cannot create an instant army. And each simulacrum is going to have to memorise spells (if a wizard) separately, so either they each have their own spellbooks or extra time is required. And there's no telepathic link. You need a source of ice or snow. You need the rubies. You need to pay the XP cost. Etc. For further example, a 13th level caster is going to create only a 6th level simulacrum of herself, and maybe an 8th level simulacrum of her 16th level fighter colleagues. Simulacra of those levels are not going to last long in a high-level adventure anyway. The aforementioned wizard will need to be at least 34th level to create a simulacrum of herself that can cast 9th level spells; well before that time Eidolon is a better option. Top tip: simply drag out the PC's old character sheet from when they were that level and make a copy to save time.</blockquote>
