cracks again!

Hello everyone!

I have a scene that I need to crack the ice in it, I've read some postings about cracking and stuff like that on this forum before, and I've done something similar with voronoi fracture and RBD, which is kinda tricky in this project and since I don't have much time for this(less than 1 week) and the pieces of ice actually don't interact with anything, I was thinking of faking the cracks and the ice pieces with some sort of combination of voronoi fracture node and possibly CHOPS! ( like making an animated selection of pieces that are going to make the crack, and rotate them when they get selected)

I'm also going to try RBD at the same time, but since the speed of cracks at first few frames of the animation is too fast, I think using an animated static object doesn't give me the desired effect, so for that part my question is how to make my fractured glue rbd object interact with an object that is moving super fast? is increasing the substeps the only way to do that? is there any other way to get the same result? or should I forget using RBD for such a tight timeline?...

Do you have any other ideas or comments on this method that I'm trying to use? or if you know some good tutorial online on this subject please let me know.

btw this is the reference that I've been given for this effect : http://vimeo.com/1187019

I appreciate your help in advance ;)
