I think the sooner AIs attack the best it is for them, as they are mostly bad in the magic area (playing with very difficult research should help them too).

Offensive AIs attack more both other AIs and players.
But if you set ten AIs on offensive on a small map, I think there are good chances that some of them gang against you (especially if you have a better start than most AIs and so have several neighbours fast).

There is also a map command to avoid to see AIs fighting each other (but it may lead to some AIs not succeeding to expand as another AI hold a crucial chokepoint).

This probably won't help anyone but the AI can still kick my butt in SP because of the fact that I don't play Dom3 as often as I want to.

This sounds interesting. I get annoyed when the AI sends mountains of chaff against me. Where is this mod? I did a quick search but couldn't find it.

You can find a link to the thread in my sig, in the FAQ and in the sticky modlist in the maps and mods subforum. Just make sure that you avoid using enslave mind or charm against independents, because the gold cost version of the mod makes all the chaff indies cost 9000 gold, which translates to 600 upkeep apiece.

I was thinking it should be easy to mod a fix that reduces the penalty for bad scales to the point where it is giving free points to the AI for taking them ( the player would have to refrain from taking bad scales). But that wouldn't work would it, because good scales are tied to bad.

You have me pegged. It half about otfitting may favorie commanders and seeing what becomes of them.

Well, I made an undead markata prophet SC recently. And then forgot to script him, so he did cast priest spells and fatigue got him down http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

On your computer browse into the docs folder and read the map edit PDF document. It will allow you to setup one or more AI's as allies, allow you to give the AI's growth scales, and more.

As somebody with a bizarre sense of humor and some difficulty with respect to doing work in games, I like to build up to a strong position, and then conduct what are often highly inefficient experiments.

I think I once had a regiment of Mechanical Men, led by a GoR'd and empowered Mechanical Man, in the Flying Ship, simply because the concept of a highly mobile robot army amused me.
