I thought just give them a flaming hands attack, but then, the red dragon can cast that with just a little research that he can probably even do himself... while he sits there soaking up hits... that IS what he should be doing. You can say...

At evo 5 your commands could be (attak rear)(cast flame eruption)x4

You can't scrpit that. On single turn attacks you can only tell the commander to attack (and he will attack the closest target), and if there are no hostiles in range for Flame Eruption (very likely if there was for example one wolf running way ahead of the rest of the hostile army (and if you are playing in a MP, you can be guaranteed there is some fast lone something running ahead of his army if he knows you use spells like Flame Eruption or Shockwave or some such)), the spell-casting AI will override the script and start casting fire flies or some other equally "useful" spell.

OK, yes. As long as he's in dragon form you should be just fine on defense, but when attacking he'll get confused by fast units.
