Re: On gems
I don't think the AI can handle the "Don't fire into close combat situations". As is anyway, and from what I have gathered the AI isn't going to be radically improved.
It would be nice though, I had to stop using clockwork horrors in any stack that had archers...I was one battle away from punching my monitor. If you've ever done that before, you would know that the monitor never loses.
Question: How often do you supply gems to your mages? I have a hard time doing this, as gems are so valuable, seems like a waste to use them on anything but critical battles. And unless you stop and build labs in every zone, there is no easy way to do that. Granted there are some awesome spells, but when you can get a one troll/Two Vine Ogres for one gem...or a nifty item for a couple more it seems like a waste. Unless the spell will dramatically alter the course of the battle. But how many spells will do that?
Thats actually a good question: What spells do you see as worth its weight (read: Cost) in gems? What spells do you script with a gem cost regularly?
