Re: The fatal flaws of scripting mages...
On the other side of the following-the-script coin, I recently cast infernal disease on a province. The commander (a Prince of Death) was scripted to cast Darkness, which he did right away. Bump fatigue to ~130. Flying demon assassin jumps over and whacks the PoD in the head until it dies.
Should a mage cast Darkness when the entire opposing army (of one) is composed of Demons? Especially when the mage will pass out from the strain?
Actually, I don't know 100% for sure about the scripting. It's more of an uninformed guess. But if the AI chose to cast Darkness in that situation, it's even worse.
Edit: I'm still such a noob! Sorry for anyone who read this and came away with some misinformation. The Prince of Death is not immortal. I've removed my comment above which said that.
