Good game, but....the AI is very bad.

Stavros / Proteus, copy/paste the below text into notepad and save it as any filename xxxxxxx.dm Then put it into your dominions\mods directory and test it out if you wish. Don't forget to enable the mod in dominions under "preferences" / "mod settings".

It makes all Militia / Light Infantry cost 999 resources so the AI hasn't built any in my quick 25 turn test game. Met armies of Ulm which recruited pikemen + infantry of ulms + archers + sappers + siege engineers and had 4 Tribal cavalries recruited. Mictlan who had 2 100% national armies of about 30-50 units a piece. And only saw 1 vanheim army consisting of 20 hirdmen and 5 Van's.

Haven't even run into any independent High Infantry unit yet although I doubt the AI has enough resources in the independent provinces to make them at this point. But you can report the results of what the AI builds instead once the LI are no longer feasible. I think archers may end up being more frequent... but thats just a guess.

Complete unit list can be found in this thread :
