Hi Brad,
Here's a couple of dumb AI moves I noticed playing on Ridiculous level. Unfortunately, the only thing ridiculous is the ridiculous number of hit points the enemy units have.
1. I'm at war with Magnar, yet he is sending wave after wave of unprotected pioneers right through my territory...easy pickins.
2. Magnar has a nice stack of doom and came after one of my cities. I simply moved all my units out of the city and he chose not to attack it. I'm simply moving my units around the map a few steps ahead of him and he's following me around this stack of doom never gaining on me. In fact, why isn't he using teleport to warp right next to me as I wander aimlessly around in his own territory?
3. I'm getting tired of the same diplomacy message turn after turn. "Do you want to join me in destroying Capitar?" No. Next turn: "Do you want to join me in destroying Capitar?" No. Next turn: "Do you want to join me in destroying Capitar?" No.
4. Why does the AI cast the same spell on the same unit multiple times during a tactical battle? For example, confusion cast 3x on a single unit instead of spreading it around?
