Re: Good game, but....the AI is very bad.

All settings on normal, except the AI. Some AIs are on normal, some on the highest diff level.
I do this because that way 1-2 AIs will be very strong in the early game, so more challange!
I think I will play against allied AIs, I never tried that. I think that will be hard enough!

Other things that boost AI's are:
lower indepts (5 is about human normal)
higher resources
higher magic (if you are not big on spell use)
low random events
If you are going to try allied AI's to make the game harder then take a look at some of the maps Ive done at www.dom2minions.com such as "Poke in the Eye" "Mazes and Monsters" or "War for Independents". Also, I could probably use some suggestions from you on how to make "WE vs THEM" harder since thats supposed to be a game which FORCES players to ally against the AI (if I can make it that hard)
