Underestimate the AI: Reap the consequences.

[Kristoffer O]

There was an 'attack commander' order in Dom1. It was removed as it was far too powerful. It seems likely that the AI order selection wasn't fully updatded.

If it isn't just a lucky 'attack rear' do you want it gone or do you think it is OK if the AI comes up with this kind of stunts from time to time?

I think it has been reported that Fang, the troll archer hero, shoots at commanders as well. In this case I'm not for a change, but in normal battles it might be a bit unfair, at least unless you expect it.

I would say please leave it as it is, even if this is the case of AI doing (rarely) something that humans can't. I mean, we all are looking for challenge, right? Whatever give AI a little advantage is good in my book.

yeah if it is true let the ai "cheat" .

could it be possible that they had attack archers oder ?

Cheezeninja you haven't mentioned archers but mages have "ranged" attacks so perhaps if you command attack archers if there are none then mages are targeted ?

In my experience flying units set to attack rearmost actually will attack rearmost a fair amount of the time. With any other kind of unit it seems like it hardly ever succeeds. So it could just be that the harpies were set to attack rearmost.

hm pangenea gets free harpies once you have the harpy national hero .
so perhaps a good use of the harpies
and they are excellent patrollers .

hm standard pangenea is really like a living ermor . lots of harpies and hordes of maenads

You should always ground the flyers with a Storm Staff when enemy has flyers and you don't have any ! This holds true vs anything, AI or human ..
