I don't have him doing anything before or after casting Flaming Arrows, so what's up? If a spell inflicts more than a hundred fatique (through encumbrance etc.) will the mage refuse to cast it, or something to that effect?

The Ai either decided it wasn't a good idea due to the enemy force not being imposing enough or decided he would be better served casting something else. What is he doing instead?
