Underestimate the AI: Reap the consequences.

This is the same in nearly every game. In all such games, however, any effect that causes control of your unit to pass over to the AI is always disastrous for you, whereas it has absolutely no effect on the AI, since it doesn't change the fact that the AI controls its own units.

You, as a player, have an option to use this dynamic tactical AI routine at any time, by scripting you mages to "spells". Your computer opponent *always* use the same tactical AI routine that you have access to.

This is a supremely counterproductive exercise, not to mention a conflict of interest: Since the objective is to DEFEAT the AI, by playing better than it does, it's very much counterproductive to play exactly the same as it does.

So if you script mages to spell, the *same* dynamic AI alhoritms will control *both* sides, with possible very rare exception that is the topic of this thread. But in any case the spell selection will use the same dinamic AI routine for both you and your opponent. Got it?

You're missing the point that in this case, the AI still controls its own units. You don't.
