These are two things that I've said before, but I am not sure if you answered them.
1) Sanik - can you change him to a fighter or something? As it is, with the Improved Mages component installed, he has a ton of protections up when the assassin shows up. Other than completely ruining the roleplaying aspect of that quest (everyone stands there, in awkward silence, as the surprise assassin shoots arrow after arrow at his stoneskins while you are unable to do anything), it also wastes about two minute's worth of time. Is there anyway to exclude Sanik from the Improved Mages or, if that's not possible, just change him to a fighter?
2) The Liches and their Uber-Teleport field. You said that they are supposed to use it only if they are already paranoid - this is definitely not what happens to me. I am standing outside the door leading to the lich in Spellhold, fighting the resident Yuan-Ti. The second I cast a spell, the lich says "Show yourself" and teleports me into the path of his CC (which goes off even though I am invisible). I never saw the lich. I did not even open the door. This is the equivalent of instakill - of course, I can counter cheese with cheese and put up SI: Necromancy, Abjuration beforehand, but I really don't see why the lich should have that kind of power.
EDIT: Oh, one more thing - your liches also have a Spell Trap in their CC.
