Anyway, it sure sounded like you had it figured out.

There's some game in MP (sorry, I'm not in it, and I can't remember which) where they have more replay issues than normal. I wonder if the llamaserver has a slightly different version of whatever mod they are using.
Maybe do a second install, and throw in the Cross Path spells mod. In the install you run the server, blank out the mod file, so there are no new spells in the fthrland. Put the real mod into the play install, and then do the same test. Bet you see your mages blow off a bunch of cool spells, that didn't really happen in the server(official) version of the battle.
