Yes, they can hit you during buffing, and they can hit you once you start to attack as well.

against these first few hits you could wear a cheap armor which ensures that you survive at least .

It definetly doesn't ensure that you survive. Crossbows can take down 30 protection SC's by themselves, and those are only 10 damage.

flaming arrows has 8 ap damage .
avg. damage on a 20 protection unit : 1.29
avg. damage on a 30 protection unit : 0.321

You are placing too much emphasis on the average damage. From experience I know that armour piercing weapons with even low damage can get through 30 protection enough times to kill a SC.

when you face only weak opposition the ai overrides your gem costing battle scripts .
so 1 unit against 100+ should be weak opposition .
so normally the ai should override the use of wind guide + flaming arrows shouldn't it ?

The AI is willing to use gems against single powerful opponents.
