Bah, you should be able to tell a mage not to cast certain spells. Or at least have a routine in the AI to not wipe out friendly forces.

I feel your pain. Believe me. I now don't even put mages that can cast the spell into battle with other troops, further increasing my general disdain for water (clams I know and quickness, but not much else)

According to Johan in this thread the AI is working correctly. It's supposed to cast breath of winter if no troops are nearby. I don't quite understand the explanation when it completely ignores friendly troops, but in that thread it doesn't seem like Illwinter considers it to be "broken".
