You do have to hope that he doesn't fire off a barkskin if there are enemy F mages in the PD (or Yomi Aka Oni, or Fire Drakes, etc).

There are exceptions, and your right, it is reasonable to do such a thing, provided that shockwave is scripted. Go back the original post and note that he 'hoped' shockwave would be cast after 4 rounds of buffing, 1 round of attacking, and scripting 'cast spells'. I can't abide by trusting the AI to cast the spells I want. |
Just did this in a game, and if you have troops within range the AI always casts shockwave. At least it always did for me. |
