Sovereign, Spouse, & Champion Gearing Discussion - Brad & Derek, Need Input!

Hi Fellas,

I'm tired of not getting off my ass and exercising which reminded me I'm tired of wondering why the AI doesn't gear their unique units based on available gildar and tech levels. As a convenient excuse to delay exercising, I decided to just come straight out and ask the questions.

Why doesn't the AI gear their unique units based on available gildar and tech levels?
If a design decision, why?
If not a decision decision and just a "find the time to code it" issue, when will it be resolved?

Your caring community of players and modders would like to know. Your modders are out there making cool stuff like sovereign gear, shields, and mounts - if the AI doesn't use it, I can see how it would be demotivating to the modders. Your seasoned players don't understand why the AI shows up to a gunfight with wiffle ball bat - sometimes feels like stealing candy from a baby.

Signed,

Your Passionate Community of Modders and Players

P.S. - now I'm going to wait for replies which is a great way to avoid exercise.

Once they gear properly the game will be fun on a bun. I've come to the conclusion this is the main reason the AI is so easy to beat. Even single game I play I encounter numerous situations that would have been very hard for me to overcome had they just had their sov/spouse/offspring/champions geared.

Seriously, in my last game Magmar would have mopped the floor with every other AI and probably even myself if they just geared properly.

On top of that, the game needs a modifier for AI tech rates. Once I grab Libraries I take off and they never catch me. Of course, maybe just making them "want" the Literacy tech more would help.
