The AI buys the correct ratio of points for the appropriate battle type after your purchase and based on whatever you have actually spent in ((your support points used + your core's value) * AIAdjustPercent (if used)). So whatever you set for "him" in the preferences screen is completely irrelevant in campaigns. His points are based on your force's points value and nothing else.

Setting points values in preferences just before start of a campaign is therefore only relevant to player 1, and just for his initial core buy only. Everything else comes from player 1's build and repair points and increase in troop value as their experience (and so cost value) increases over time, plus any support points you spent this battle on troops or mines.

Setting air strike levels in preferences before a generated campaign game is also entirely ignored, as the campaign code will decide the air levels.

Cheers
Andy
