Just out of curiosity as to how out of whack the AI is or isn't I'm curious to hear from the all the demoers out there what the biggest battle they've seen is. Limit it to you vs. the AI or AI vs. AI (if you had a scout). Preface it with the game settings, Indie strength, number of AIs, Map, AI level (weak, normal, ...), turn, and anything else you feel is germane.

I posted this in the AI thread, but I'll repost it to start off the thread.

Playing as Pythem with indie at 6 or 7 (can't remember exactly), all Nations at normal or difficult, larger map. It was around turn 15 when I caught Marginons army that was ~60 units with 3 commanders (it was 5 commanders but I managed to assassinate 2 in the preceeding turns). I had an army of ~45 units, but an arch therug prophit with 3 slaves. Mostly HI with a few shortbows for longer range missles. I won with light casualties, mostly because I had assassinated his inquisitors and he had no priests to bless.

3 turns later I was seiging his capital and was attacked by an army ~35 units includeing 8 summer lions.

So add your own battle reports, or just say that for whatever settings you used you never saw anything worth reporting...
