Magic spell should comes first.

It's a common trick to cast a "Call of the Wind", or other equivalent cheap attack spell, to enage your enemy before your main army before your main battle. The fake attack could knock out the gems on your enemy mages when they try to go through their script. So, when your main army attack, they won't be able to cast the "Wrathful Sky" or other similar combos.

There were complaints that the spell AI should be smart enough to distinguish the fake attack and the main battle. I don't know how well the spell AI is doing in the current Version.
