Re: Rate the SP AI...
I find the SP AI to be able to utilize many, if not most, of the options available to it. That said it can use a little "help" to make it a real challenge for experienced strategy gamers.
Adding a few forts to a map, in key provinces, gives it the ability to create more national units. Making the militia line units sacred removed the hoarding of weak units.
The most glaring weakness I found is an inability to take advantage of special sites or even to look for them. Neither does it seem to use gems in an efficient way, boosting spells rather than itemforging or unit summoning.
I can still get my arse kicked by a Mictlan normal AI. As usual the strength of an AI is micromanagement and unit transportation. The tedious bits of strategy where I make frequent mistakes.
