So, in order for it to ever work, I would have to have pure blood mages? I mean, all battle blood magic requires "gems", and if they know any other path they'll always have something else to cast.

As I said, if we cannot have full control over battles, at least the AI shouldn't pretend to be smart and abandon scripts when they are doable.

People used to complain when AI didn't abandon scripts and wasted gems in underwhelming forces. Before the script override you could teleport in a single commander before you walked in a separeate army, thus depleting all the gems of the spellcasters before the main force arrive. This was a complaint from dom 1 that was remedied for dom 2.
