Fire mages casting Rage on Umbrals

[FAJ]

I am curious as to how the AI chooses its spells when it is disregarding scripting.

Recently I had a friendly neighbor suicide some militia an event gave him to kill them off. I had 3 diseased warlocks in the province, with slaves, scripted to "blood heal" then stay behind troops. The idea being to heal them back to full and keep them blood hunting for another 10 turns, in which I would blood heal them again, doing my best to retain utility out of diseased hunters untill they get eventually feeble-minded. Each was at HP < 40%

Instead of blood healing, they spammed "body ethereal" on their own blood slaves. and after they were all ethereal, they cast luck.

Is it possible that with old age, comes senile behavior? These warlocks are sacrificing themselves to buff their slaves!

Logs show some of that. Here is a short bit of one...

com Baalboo cast spell (favspell Nothing) (mayusegems 1)
est. choices 48
best spell so far Twist Fate (score112)
best spell so far Personal Luck (score951)
castspell: cnr783 spl340 (Personal Luck) vis0 x20 y9 spldmg2

I think that was on the lowest log setting. Setting it higher might give more info.

If you add a -d or -dd to the line that calls dom3.exe on the icon that starts the game for you then it will keep debugging logs.
