Better balanced my butt LOL as I stated earlier the AI always was able to swarm over you even while your soldiers and heroes were still building the AI had somehow cranked out heroes and soldiers and gotten them up to like level 4 before they even reached your base heh and you call that balanced?

And how can you say more options?
WC 2 had
Aircraft
Ships
Land units
Island hopping campaigns
Magics
Ranged units
Melee units

WC3 had:
Land units
Ranged
Melee
1 air unit per side that was easily killed for the price
Magicka
Lame attempts at Character development.

The lack of ships was shocking I'll agree, although the humans did have Gryphons and Gyrocopters so thats two air units.
Yeah both are pretty easily killed, but the same could be said of WC2 air units, hell a few Elven archers or Troll axe throwers would annihilate any dragon/gryphon. WC2 air units were only good against someone stupid enough not to have any archers/axe guys in a force. A mistake no-one made twice

Blizzard always do tough AIs, in this case they're very agressive at going out killing random map units while building up a base, which is harder for a person to properly - Hence the AIs advantage.
