A bug or a feature?

[MAGE-]

While having unit with document check we can step into close range of elder fire elemental and it will move one tile from that unit and...and...and actually will run out of moves and will do nothing, so it can be way too easyly bringed down without a scratch it also gives the way to fast leveling of hunters which later can be upgraded into most deadly archers of helia.
So, bug or feature?

Definetly the not desired behaviour of elemental.

It seems that elemental AI doesn't understand movement debuff ability.

How does one check documents of fire elemental?

I think it is the general bug that AI always wants to move at least one tile before attacking, thus you can prevent any AI unit from attacking by either surrounding it or, as you said, lowering its movement so it has no more moves left after it moved once.
