Default Re: House Rules against the AI

Just to add a recent set of house rules i´m playing with that is generating some very fun and challenging games with the AI:

New house rules:
- do not construct any new castles - you only keep your starting castle and any conquered or generated by events.
- Always use max Drain scale.
- AIs at least in Mighty

Old Rules:
- Always use an Imprisioned pretender
- Only attack AIs if attacked first (just declaring war is not enough)
- Do not use battle spells that use gems
- Do not use global spells (using Dispel to bring down ones used by the AI is fine).


I´m not using anymore the house rule of only 1 researcher per lab, but using the max Drain scale and the castle limit i got a similar effect, and the limit on castles really make the game challenging...
