The manual describes precision as the number of squares a unit can aim away before possibly hitting the wrong square. The presented formula is essentially (precision)+((precision - 10) ≥ 0). With 100 precision, that is 190 squares away - longer than the entire field.
Umm, I'm sure I'm being dumb, but my manual p.77 states (Precision / 2) - 2 as range beyond which deviation will occur. Which I make 48 for a 100 Precision. I admit I'm looking under "missile combat", but I thought it was same for spell-casting mages....

and P.S. p.86 tells me mage casting is as per p.77 !
Elsewhere it describes it as precision, with precision past 10 counting twice, which simplifies to the formula I gave.
