Re: CBM recommended
CBM is not specifically designed for the AI, but neither does it work poorly with it. It is designed to increase the range of choices in the game which are reasonable. This applies to the AI too, and may possibly make it more effective by reducing the number of stupid choices in the game. But I'm not sure about this.
Without CBM, when you've been playing a while you're likely to realize that some apparently cool choices are actually always poor choices. For example you may come to the conclusion that you should *never* summon drakes. I think that's sad.
If CBM has met its goals, then under CBM this shouldn't happen. Summoning drakes (for example) may still be highly situational, but under some set of circumstances it would be a good strategy. So the range of interesting choices has increased.
Personally I think you will enjoy SP more if you use CBM. But as the current maintainer I am biased!
