Frustratingly Stupid Fire Mages

[Agema]

Move your mages nearer the front?

Some of the Evocation artillery you'd probably want to default to if the AI declines to cast your script will have short(ish) range. If you're too far back, they can't hit anything, so they'll cast self-buffs or summon elementals. Although to be honest, mages summoning elementals when they have spare gems is one of those little frustrations that's hard to avoid.

Well here's my take on it.

Logic 1: All I need to win is flaming arrows.
Logic 2: Often my mages are blowing gems, and hurting actively hurting my prospects.

If both of those are true,

How about... flaming arrows, retreat.

modify as necessary for windguide, boosters or desired level of repetition. Flameing arrows, flaming arrows, retreat.

or communion master flaming arrows, RoR.
