Whoah theres a lot of micro management in this game

[Question]

To automate site searching, click on a commander casting the spell, press shift+m, choose a site searching spell, pick a site, and the next month the commander will choose a new site to search.

Thanks, that helps a lot. Will shift+m automate things like forging items or ritual spells too?

I had manuals of water breathing, but theres no way 25 units per commander could invade a 1500 troop city o.O.
