Default I am crossing my fingers, but I doubt this...

Well, I am crossing my fingers, but I doubt this has been changed.

In dominions 1 and 2, each mage takes its own little amount of time to cast a spell. Mage 1: Casts flaming darts, Mage 2: Casts fire sheild, Mage 3: Casts vine arrow, etc etc. But what if in dominions 3 mages can cast at the exact same time? There are two different setups for this idea. Semi-synchronized and Completely-synchronized.

Semi: All mages casting the same spell do so at once, mages casting other spells have to wait till it's their turn. For example: 3 mages cast flaming darts at the same time, then 2 mages then cast fire shield at the same time.

Completely: All mages cast all spells at once.

Either one would make me verrrrry happy. I just hate that when I tell 10 sauromancers to cast Raise Skeleton or Disintegrate that they all have to do it one by one. Anyway, 10 mages casting a spell like Flame Darts at the same time would be a very cool sight and would ultimately be more realistic.

maybe this is for Dominions 4?
