Well, the upshot of this problem is having a huge impact on my game. So many times a large group of AI controlled crossbow troops are given the order to fire at my commanders that, practically speaking, there is no way for me to survive these battles apart from given 10 Air and blessing them or spending all of my resources creating etherial/lucky/armor items for ALL of my commanders.
Have you tried moving your commanders to the far back of the field, rather than having them behind the troops at the front line? Works well for me. The only thing that can target my commanders that far back are spells, and the AI tends to prefer hitting troops that are closer.
