Novel Idea: Teaching Tool using AI

How's this for a curious idea and an additional way for people to learn the game and what is possible.
Let the AI play itself. That would mean letting an AI Axis play an AI Allies and watch the moves and situations present themselves. Not only would it test the AI to a very high level and allow the developer to make adjustments as needed, but it would help show newer players what is possible in the game hopefully. [:)]
** Come home ... crack a beer, start up MWiF. AI Axis plays AI Ally. Watch the game ... stop the game to check a couple stacks ... continue ... watch Axis mow over Poland and France in impecable fashion by J/A 1940 ... then see what happens next ** [:D]

I suggested an AI vs AI mode as a learning aid years ago. AFAIK Steve isn't going to do it, at least for release 1.
Cheers, Neilster

Actually I was calling Steve an AFAIK for not including an AI vs AI mode [:'(] It's like a cross between being effete and a fake. What an AFAIK [:D]
Cheers, Neilster.

That is the way a lot of us tested our AOE2 and other rts maps/scenarios to see how well they worked or not...
