AI Sauromatia and Mother of Monsters

[Frozen Lama]

chances are, they won't even be smart enough to use her in combat. probably just leave her in the cap to research. but your right, they don't get poison cloud. they will most likely put her in the pack

Ah, okay. Thanks.

Is the AI that way even with clearly SC-type pretenders? Will it leave, say, a Gorgon at home researching? Is it dependent on whether it has magic or not?
