(sigh)... 18 marshmasters... 15 of them scripted to spam undead for as long as they can... precisely 1 does it. Now most of them are dead. Not that they didn't earn it for disobeying me, I would have just rather they had obeyed my scripted orders and won. Anyone got any clues as to why this is happening? I know Man noticed that there was a distinct lack of undead coming at him as well. All those marshmasters casting the wonderful personal protection spells they have as they hang out in the rear, rather than creating masses of undead chaff to wear down our enemies at the same time that poison is sapping his ability to resist.

Sometimes the AI decides that the enemy army isn't strong enough to waste scripted spells on.

Masses of undead would have gone straight for the morrigans... once the script ran out the mages would have started casting damaging spells while the morrigans were tied up. Fifteen marshmasters spamming undead can do a hell of a lot of tying up, even from point blank range.

Which is my issue. I want my mages following the script that I set for them! Once that script runs out they can do what they want. Protection spells for a mage that will never be much of a combatant are worthless. Regardless, they weren't even euphamerally acquianted to the script I set them, so it became irrellavant.
