Hopefully this gets fixed in the upcoming patch. I couldn't help but notice how spellcasters are casting 'fire_shield' or 'barkskin' when ALL of the enemy troops are retreating. Whether I'm retreating or vise versa. Spellcasters shouldn't be casting these defensive spells if all of the enemy has been routed.

There could be some berserkers or contructs (Golem, statues) remained. I don't exactly remember how it's handled but I think these units keep on fighting. So, it's not totally bad that the spellcasters casting defensive spells.

The AI could actually count how many enemies will keep on fighting but it'll be more work. And it's not totally realistic - since your mages can't right click their enemies to see if they'll rout.

My two cents.
