If you have a high enough level cleric I found turning usually worked on the shadows. Other than that I would say the key is split up and dont let him hit you all with the cone of cold at once. I also found cone of cold to work fairly well on the shadows...usually from a wand.

Rush the archlich with your heavy hitters, your going to want to do that with any spellcasters as when they try to cast a spell your combat reflexes kicks in. As for the master shadows, try to turn them, but also hit them with a lot of spells. I usually have different sets of weapons, and a set for undead, this usually works better against incorpreal opponents.
