Default Re: Bug or Bad Design?

I was recently hit by Burden of Time, and lost two or three leaders on the first turn (including two experienced Black Priests with two Dwarven Hammers and one pair of Earth Boots, and one of them was Empowered), and some units in the same province. Thankfully, another AI dispelled the enchantment the next turn.

It would be nice to get explanatory Messages of who all has died or been afflicted by the spell (named characters, anyway). I know it's magic, but I kind of expected to see more afflictions and diseases rather than units just vanishing without a trace.

It'd also be nice and appropriate if the magic items were salvageable, at least when the victims were at a lab or other commanders were nearby (though, no automatic organ transplants, please ).

The existence of spells like this makes it useful to have some astral, for the sake of your empire.

Has anyone figured out what the chances to dispel are using certain numbers of extra astral gems?
