AI "personalities?"

I thought I read something about the AI having different personalities this time, like aggressive, defensive and mixed. Do I recall correctly? Are you able to set these parameters before the game starts or are they randomly determined for each AI? Sounds like a neat feature that would add much to the single player game if true.

IIRC you can set the AI parameters (agressive, defensive, normal, and mixed) at the beginning of each new game.

That's freakin' awesome, thanks NakedLunch!

Yeah. This is neat. Btw hopefully the AI wont move his pretender/commanders with like 2 troops to conquer provinces like in Doms 2...in most of my SP games the AIs are loosing their pretenders pretty fast, because of that.

Yes currently three AI personalities exist:
Defensive, Aggressive and Standard

I recall reading each can be placed for an AI opponent before the start of a game. Hopefully a random option exists as well.

Not sure what new modding options exist, but I would love to see a modding option for the AI personalities !

There is one. The settings are Normal, Agressive, Defensive, and Random. I just checked.
