Default Re: Noobs vs. AI's: New series. Conceptual thread/discussion.

You could start the first game with quick random gods for the AIs, sprinkle in a few well-designed ones for the next game, and then fo the last game have all pre-designed gods. That is one of the largest factors in AI difficulty anyway. Another would be to start the AIs off with some thugs or useful magic items.

As for the map, you could maybe ask elmokki for tips. He made a bunch of custom maps based off of... cradle of dominion? I don't remember which map for sure, but he was able to make very nice-looking maps using pre-existing map images.
