Bernard,

IMO try to design/direct the AI movement with the careful positioning of VP flags.
The AI units will almost always ignore any way-point in order to contest VP flags.

If you wish to apply way-points in your scenario design you must experiment A LOT with their use!!!
From my experience the waypoints are good if you like to set the pace of movement; for example:

You have a convoy (moving on a road straight line) and you wish that different units with different speeds maintain formation. Then if you carefully plan their step (through the use of waypoints) you may achieve to have a simultaneous advance of all units.

But for the moment try to direct your AI manouvers with the use of VP flags.

cheers,
Pyros
