Re: Gem usage
The limit is per-cast, not per-combat. If I'm understanding you right, it would be perfectly okay for the mage to spend 1 earth gem to cast Summon Earthpower (now he's E2S1), a pearl to cast Power of the Spheres (now he's E3S2), and then 3 gems to cast Curse of Stones.
However, it will likely take him 5 or 6 turns to do it, since even just casting Summon Earthpower + POTS will boost him to around 126 fatigue, discounting Magic scale effects.
