Hi

I just got Dominions3 and i like it, but there are some little annoyances.

Mage casting behavior

I think it should be possible to give your mages the order to cast only spells that dont use gems, as i noticed my mages to waste their gems pretty fast.

The other thing I'd like would be to give your mage the order not to use too much fatigue. Especially on a battle that you might loose it sucks when your mages stay with 160 fatigue on the battlefield and get killed. Maybe an order, not to cast spells that would render the caster unconscious, would be nice.

The above (not casting spells) isn't implemented, but could be useful. IIRC, mages ordered to "Stay behind troops" cast spells but stop before they are unconscious. I can't verify this yet, as I don't have my Dom3 manual yet, but I seem to remember it being this way. "Stay behind troops" would also be a good enough command for mages who you don't want to cast spells , wouldn't it?
