Tactic AI seems improved

lol
I still see the occasional stray wave of blades sweeping across my front line from friendly mages, but not as often as I used to. Seems to happen mostly when the enemy and my front line have joined in battle and there are no other suitable large groupings of enemies nearby. Also, tramplers tend to disperse and mingle with these groups making it more likely that they will get nailed.

Just wait until you see the AI sending the first cavalry group scripted to Attack Rear annihilate your mages. AI has been improved in many ways.

I have proudly experienced that early on. Now I am careful to keep a line of chaff between my flanking mages and those nasty horses.

Priest-mages with Holy 3 seem to have hard to deciding what is the best spell though. They use Flying Shards when they could cast smite...

Flying Shards isn't pretty. It's annoyingly good spell. It HURTS and KILLS. Depends on the opposition, of course, but Kailasa suffers from it. I should now, I've played Kailasa.

I'm talking about flying shards vs Heavy Cavalry.

Yep, tactical AI is much better also.
