Actually, they sometimes do. I have seen a mage do: Pick 1, Random, Pick 2, Pick 3, Pick 4, Random, Pick 5. I've also seen other combos.

A unit with a NORMAL level of quickness, that enables it to take only two actions per round, will follow its script, and burn through it 2x faster.

A unit with quickness that allows it to take *3* or more actions per round will take two actions out of its script, then perform the rest of the actions of the round according to the "final" command like Attack, Spells, Stay Behind, etc.

So if a unit with 3 actions/round is scripted to do (Mirror)(Personal Luck)(Mistform)Attack, it will cast Mirror Image, then Personal Luck, then Attack, then next round it will cast Mistform, and continue Attacking.
