AI of the Game

[VALENT PHILIPPE]

i am sorry , i want some information about the AI of the game: is the game:easy, medium and hard. i don't see anything about this[&:] .
i am not a good strategic player and if it is too hard for me to play every scenario, i don't want to buy the game.
Can somebody help me and tell if it is playable without be nervous or excited:play about 10 times each scenario[:D]
Thanks[;)]

Hi Valent,

The AI is pretty good, but as with any AI it is beatable with practice. The smaller scenarios are easier than the larger ones in general and while all the scenarios try to be balanced some are a bit harder from one side than the other until you figure out the right strategy. We don't "rate" our AIs as with any AI we hear from folks who can't beat it as well as from folks who find it very easy to beat. The complexity of the game though is not high - it's a very realistic system, but very easy to learn so you should be able to understand the rules quickly and play the game rather than struggling with the rules system.

Regards,

- Erik

I have read the AAR posted in this forum, it's a good way to help me i think[;)]

Pardon me for stepping in but please let me explain what Erik meant with; "as with any AI we hear from folks who can't beat it as well as from folks who find it very easy to beat"
He's saying that some players find the AI very potent, very hard to beat, while others find the AI can be defeated easily.
In my opinion that's as good as an AI can get, the AI can be very good but a cunning player will always have ways of beating the AI.

ok i have understand now[:)] thanks for Josh
But am i a cunning player too[;)]
Bref i look at the forum when the game is played. thanks for all

[Erik Rutins]

Yes, the game comes with a full in-game tutorial as well as a full color printed manual. [8D]

[VALENT PHILIPPE]

The only probleme for me is the value of the IA.Is It too hard.? [&:] Well i think hard about that.
Thanks for all.

Hi Valent,

Do you have experience with other wargames? This is one of the easier ones to learn and once you master how to play, you should be able to beat the AI with some practice and use of good tactics. Each scenario is different and each side is different, but with practice a human player can generally beat any AI.

Regards,

In the manual it says see the faq document for more details on the difficulty settings. Where can I find the faq document?
