Default Re: Restricting AI death scale?

Ive been trying to consider this from the other side. We have people saying that the AI doesnt play efficiently. In the case of gems that would usually mean that gems get used up as much as possible? There will always be disagreements on what should be done. Certain spells cast, using astrals to boost research, summonings.

Id say having astrals used to boost research is probably the easiest answer for all nations. Now someone casts burden of Time. The AI would have to decide to save up in order to expel it.

So every turn the AI should check for a global spell. If there is one then dont use astrals. When you have enough astrals then try a dispel.
All globals? A list of certain globals? How many astrals over the minimum should the AI gamble on an expel?
