Noob question about AI and diplomacy

[thejeff]

Part of the problem of course is that an good human pretender is often not a good AI pretender. A god designed for any particular strategy (Summons or forging to expand magic/SC/Casting game winning spells) won't work, since the AI won't work towards that strategy. It won't even take advantage of a strong bless (Won't recruit enough sacreds, won't bless them if it does.)

Probably the best AI pretenders are fairly generic high dominion/scales gods. Preferably immobile or immortal so they can't be killed easily.
