Default My mages are idiots!

Let me ammend that, my mages AND troops are idiots.

Anyway, I'm Vanheim (Midg�rd), fighting Pythium. I was beating him pretty good, Principes are no match against Vanir, expecially ones with an Air9 blessing. Then he decides to bring in hydras...

...and the trouble begins...

...in the first battle a single hydra caused the death of countless troops. Ok, my bad, I wasn't prepared for it. I decide to Cloud Trapeze in some Galdermen with 3 Air. I script them Aim, Thunder Strike, some other spells.

What do they do?

That's right, cast Aim not on themselves, but on Vanir and some Huskarls. Great. Then they go on to Thunder Strike some random Pricipes. Arrgh! And to top it off, my Vanir who are supposed to attack rear charge straight at the hydra, dooming themselves! I would have beaten them easily, had my mages blassted the stupid thing OR had my Vanir just left it alone and wiped out the Pricipes and commanders. But noooooo...

So, to make a long story short, is there any way to influence how your mages target their spells?
