Re: My Wraith Lord just wiped out 39 commanders. M
A 'do not cast unless scripted' checklist would solve this and many other problems. I know we'll probably never see it, but imagine how cool it would be. If you checked the majority of spells on there, you could have unscripted mages choosing from a limited and useful selection - just leave them all the buffs for instance, or the long range spells.
I'm not saying give each mage their own list, just one global list for your nation which you can mess around with each turn would be fine.

Re: My Wraith Lord just wiped out 39 commanders. M
I would LOVE something like that. I mean I like Raise Dead, but I dont want it to be the only thing my mages default to ALL THE TIME.

Re: My Wraith Lord just wiped out 39 commanders. M
Yup, we've been trying to get the Devs to add a checklist feature for battle spells since Dom2. This may be a good time to try again, as it's hard to say that what happened to Professor_Chaos is just "working as designed".

Re: My Wraith Lord just wiped out 39 commanders. M
I remember many other waves of spell blacklist request (that seems the simplest way), but it appears devs enjoy these "My stupid mage ..." threads.

Re: My Wraith Lord just wiped out 39 commanders. M
Personally, this sounds like just the sort of sadistic thing a Wraith Lord would do.

Re: My Wraith Lord just wiped out 39 commanders. M
I have seen demiliches commit suicide with bonegrinding when scripted to undead mastery.

The beserker type spells should also avoid archer types. Archer types and low life mages should be given the least amount of priority when its seeking a target for these beserker spells.

Re: My Wraith Lord just wiped out 39 commanders. M
Mages are very good at casting beserker spells on themselves except when you want them to.
I had a carrion lord SC. I wanted to make sure that it goes beserk so that it wound't run after the PD got killed. But it completely ignored my scripted beserk command, casted something else, and then ran away after the PD got killed. Grrr. The other 2 times I tried it I got the same thing.
... something just occured to me. Because they are undead is it possible they can't go beserk?
