while using a site with a conjuration 20 bonus in the cradle map to cast acashic record the game is requiring me to have the full casting cost of the spell (25 astral) to give my wizard the order WITHOUT subtracting the conjuration 20 bonus, but then when it takes the gems out of my stockpile it takes the correct total out (20). This essentially forces me to alchematize to 25 gems to cast a 20 gem spell. Is this purposeful or a bug?

I've noticed this also. It was pretty annoying when I was trying to cast Ether Gate (90 Astral) at a 40% conj bonus site, but it wouldn't let me unless I had the full 90 gems. I think it's a bug, because in a similar situation, it's not necessary to have the full cost when you construct items. (ie: the game is aware of the reduced cost at purchase time)

Also, in 2.11, I notice sometimes that the wrong size of rectangle seems to show up on the army formation diagram sometimes. A group with one or two men will sometimes show up as a fairly large rectangle (usually seen for a group of 10-20 men), while a fairly large group (a group of about 15 men and giant scorpions) will sometimes show up as a very small rectangle. It's not often and I hadn't ever noticed that happening before.

I've seen this also in my current Arcoscephale game. One group of 4 vine men has a rectangle about the size of 50 militia, and one group of 12 Heart Companions has a rectangle of about 30 militia. I think I've also seen the opposite case (big group with a small box), but I don't remember the specifics of that case.
