Alternate Victory Conditions and the AIs who love them

Licker, are you saying that even if an AI controls half the map, he won't build forts even if it looks as if he might get cut off from his supply line?

I can't answer your question, I've not seen an AI get that big. I did see Ulm take out Machaka and get a 2nd fort that way, but Ulm was over 30 provinces when that happened, and hadn't built another fort on his own. I had built 2 by that time, and if I hadn't gone for a 'quick' VP win at that point I would have built another 2 to allow me to get my national units to the front (and for defense) more quickly.
