I brought up that spell as well. It is obviously broken as it doesn't target highest protection units.

I have seen the behavior you describe (mage targetting lone commander instead of group of infantry) in recent patches as well. I think it started at the point when the game was patched so that LoS would not be cast multiple times on the same group of units. I have not played around much with tactics--up to this point I've just done as you have and put the mage in the middle--but I think I'd try mixing in some low-prot units in the same squad as the high-prot ones you want buffed.

Legions of Steel has a shortlist entry in the spells section. Must be third or fourth time it's up there. It's seriously broken, seems to have some kind of cutoff value that if you have protection better than X, it won't be cast. Now if someone were to figure out X first...
