Okay I decided to make this topic, since the AI is very weak.

As I see, the biggest problems are, that the AI:

1.) isnt recruiting enough units.
2.) is trying to operate with small 'blitz' armies, I never ever seen a bigger AI army in the demo so far.
3.) isnt protecting its provinces very well
4.} isnt making smart strategical moves


Tell me what you think. I think these are the major problems with the Doms 2. AI.

1 - I agree. However some AIs had nice amount of units in some of my games, but all of those were weak units. They were toast against my heavyweight army.

2. - Very true

3. - Hm I don't agree with this. This part is working well. When I leave a province with a small defense force only, the AI always trying to conquer it with a small army, and he is getting it almost every time.

4. - I agree. One of the biggest problem is, that the AI has no counter for any sort of
efficient strategy.


2 main problems with the AI:
* The AI won't recruit an effective army. Mostly it is trying to attack with tiny - mediocre armies.

** The AI has no counter for any sort of
efficient strategy.


Setting indy str to 7++. It helps a bit, that will slow down the human player, but it also slow down the AI. Also I noticed that when I set it to 7, 8 or 9, and I reach the AI, its hellish easy to conquer the AI's provinces, since the AI had killed the indy armies, and propably the forces of the AI are almost totally dead when I reach the freshly conquered provinces.
