Default Re: Movement AI needs work

It's getting in the first shot that makes it worth doing. I close to within the nearest safe distance and then go for the throat. Strike with everything you've got on the first blow at the closest range possible.

The computer is stupid. Do we wish to keep a stupid computer? Is it stupid because it's impossible to make it smarter? Have all the best minds already tried and failed?

And formation combat was demonstrated to be inferior to individual combat during the colonial wars that separated the USA from the UK. That remains true in this video game as well; formation combat results in poor use of range.
