Good morning all:
Finally got around to downloading WIF.....I believe I've got all the updates and patches loaded but still don't see an AI option while setting up game.
I did read the disclaimers in the download section which says NO AI with initial download release...
Would appreciate any help/direction etc.
Thanks
Michael

AI is still in the future. The road map has several updates to include remaining optional rules and scenarios from the board game version and completion of Netplay for more than 2 players.
I expect that it will take more time to implement AI since there is a lot of complexity in the rules and strategy that will need to be further designed and implemented.
At this point, the game is primarily a 2 player or solitaire game. There are some workarounds to allow more players.

We are playing a 4 people Global War (Germany, Italy+Japan, USSR+France+China, US) . You just need to synchronise between the two people who are playing with the same game player.

Yes, I know.
That is one of the "workarounds" I inferred.
I am doing that myself.
We'll just need to wait for Steve to hit this in his priorities, but it will be in direct conflict with AI.
Also, you forgot about CW (probably combined with US and Nationalist China).
