And regarding scripting mages: So if i set it to attack closest it will fire off range 1 spells when it gets into melee? Or will it just use its melee attacks?
Just melee attacks. Which is a great thing when you have a supercombatant whom(spelling?) you dont want to get tired.

I don't think you can both strike and use magic, but I *think* (never checked the debug log for this) touch spells still require a successful attack roll (and presumably the defender gets a defense roll to oppose this).
I think there's no such roll.

More importantly, there's only a 50% chance of a mage being able to cast a spell when an enemy is in hand-to-hand range, otherwise he will attack hand-to-hand.

Yup, important to know.
