AI IQ

[Petiloup]

Was expecting good things from this game. Being at quite a strategic level I was expecting a fair AI to fight again.

So far not very impressed.

First game with Turkey I obtain Total Domination of Europe after obtaining unconditional surrender twice from Russia and Austria. Also was at war with Britain and conquered Sardinia, Malta, and other small stuff but never saw one British fleet while I used mine to move troops all around and supply them.

Second game win with Russia quite easily. Austria and Prussia never worked together and Turkey doesn't seem to have a clue that when they are both out they would be next. Never saw any French troops anywhere outside France and Switzerland/Italy.

Third game with Prussia and conquered almost all the German states, crushed Austria but lost Berlin to a French corps as I didn't put enough garrison. Nonetheless I was beating French lonely corps one after the other while I was one moment scared to got Napoleon with a huge army coming to destroy me but somehow the turn after they vanished spreaded over the map. Russia was a nice friend but useless ally even granting him access for his troops.

Through those 3 games I have never felt that France was the ennemy to beat. Never felt also the tension of being backstabbed judiciously by another power while having another war to fight.

A part playing against human player is there something I'm missing? could put the AI on a stronger level but that will not improve they way it plays from what I read on other posts.
