Matrix Games Forums

Dear forum,

I have replaced him half a dozen times at high expenses against better ones.
After some time this stupid AI decided every time to bring him back. Sometimes after 2 or 3 turns, longest has been something like 3 months. Being a basic optimist, I decided every time to invest more points to get rid of him.
I even tried to put him in command of a corps in the middle of nowhere, just to get rid of him. In vain.

Last turn now, the AI even executed a flawless Guderian just to empty the office for him.


Is his position hardcoded or is the AI equipped with a sort of sadistic trait designed to drive innocent players into desparation?

I wouldn't replace Halder. At the OKH level the Admin rating is the most important. Halder has the best Admin rating. Probably why the AI is trying to put him back.

I hereby cancel my question and ask that it be flagged as "stupid".

"OKH Commander Franz Halder is arrested and EXECUTED"

yes, he has a good admin score, but all the rest is horrible.
And if I understood the rules correctly, OKH is the last instance in all checks. So the influence on a single check may be not huge in %age, but the number of checks is huge.
My favorite is Kluge with 9-8-8 and a good inf score.

In my opinion leaders with better combat ratings are better at corps or army level.

I only ever consider the admin rating for army group or higher commands.

Personally I leave Kluge in charge of 4th Army. It's an important command and he works well there.
