Default Re: AI unable to build big army (>25000 pts)

thx for the tips andy,

but i spoke of the amercians because from my own expermients, they are really the only ones to be able to build armies worth 30000 pts with heavy on

but i do not like heavy on, and in fact i was hoping to play on the eastern front.
however russians seem to get the smallest army in points from the four main opponents...

have you ever dreamt of a battle involving 120 ISU 152 vs 80 tigers 1?

since the ai purchase code section is based on rarity as you explained, it will not adapt to the force of the humain player, be it realist, elitist, or not

i do not think a battalion of panthers is unrealist, be it on the eastern or the western front...

i understand now that the ai will always buy a standard force army

finally, i do not critize your answer, but a battalion of infantry, and supports troops is worth 5000 pts, plus a battalion of PzIVh, another 5000 pts, plus 500 support troops when you defend, 10500...
multiplied by 2.5 equals 26500...
very hard for the russians to reach an army of this value

and with my experiments the british in 1944 got one time an army worth 16000 pts...

so currently the only way to play a balanced game is to reduced the size of your core.
ok whith small battles, but this is sade because the game engine can handle much more

or stop to play with germans, since the other three sides finish the campaign as attackers, so they can have armies worth 30000 pts, and the german Ai would have to buy armies worth 15000 pts, no problem at all

i am unlucky to love germans...

anyway, i never said this to you and all the team that works on this game, but i have to tell that your game is fantastic and you do a good job
