Sermon of courage

[Soyweiser]

I would actually like to have some sort of 'cast defensive spells' 'cast offensive spells' and 'cast spells' orders. So you could order your normal priests to bless and sermon, and your wizard-priests would just start blasting their opponents to oblivion.

Great idea! Totally! Pity so unlikely to happen...

Yep it is quite a change. UI change, you need to add fields on all the spells to indicate the type of spell etc. So it also changes modding. More of a dom4 thing .

Holy Avenger is approximately as useful as Fire Shield, which F2 mages love to cast when unscripted. (It costs fatigue and a turn of mage time, and maybe will do a few points of damage to the first unit which waltzes up and kills the mage.) The usefulness of offensively-defensive buffs is very situational, but I guess mages are just paranoid about their own skins and don't realize that Fire Shield doesn't also give an Awe +0 effect. The only solution I know of is to either script or have enough mages that you don't have to care about inefficiency in casting.
