I suggest using the mapedit commands to provide specific pretenders to the AI opponents and it also allows you to configure them as allies.

If you're feeling very brave provide an AI opponent with one or more SCs... thugs won't last long enough.

Thanks Edi for the mod! I like it so far... well, I'm not sure 'like' is the appropriate word as it's resulted in a bit more pain for me, but still, that's what I was after!

I could script the AI myself, but I'd know what I'd be up against, so I would have a much easier time coming up with a counter well in advance. Well, unless I designed the perfect SC I suppose...

Check out Ballbarian's SemiRandom/Random suite of tools. Not scripted, but at least better designed AI opponents are possible. You could design them yourself but leave enough randomized to make it not totally predictable.
