Re: French Para Obat error?
The AI is not totally predictable and that alone makes it better then many I've seen.
Sure it's basic tactic is "Banzai !", but given most of the situations (assaults, advances, meeting engagements) represented in the game, the size of the map, the number of forces involved, and the scenario time limit what else can it do?
The maps rarely have room for a flanking maneuver even if the scenario was long enough to try one. Usually the AI concentrates most of it's forces in one section of the map with a few flanking units and bulls ahead, it really has no other option. Once in a while it puts almost everything on one flank or the other, sometimes it buys/uses airborne/airmobile forces, sometime it has airstrikes, frequently it has hordes of mortars/artillery which it occasionally uses for counter-battery but more often concentrates someplace it's spotted a few of the players units, it can't "see" what, if any, units are behind those so it takes an educated guess.
It's hardly as smart as all the the most foolish players but it's not moronic.
