    Default Questions...

    Hey everyone the previews look great and I can't wait for this mod! I just have two questions:
    1. Is this mod close to completion?
    2. How will the battle ai be? Especially when defending cities? I found the ai retarded when defending cities in vanilla and still in other mods.
    You fear the Unibrow. That shows RESPECT.

    Hello Barbarian Roman

    to your first question:
    please check this thread (post #2)
    http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=421741

    2.concerning the AI our possibilities are limited. It is possible to trigger better formations, it is also possible to manipulate certain reactions of the AI (see darth mod) - however, the general behavior of the AI is hard-coded. In this case you shouldn't expect too much regarding AoD2.
    Anyway, together with BI+Creative Assembly patch 1.6 the AI is imo okay so far (not good - but also not bad).

    I believe this is what's called contradictions in terms...

    Thanks for the reply. Yes, I understand. The ai was made by CA, and modders can only tweak it a bit, not give it a complete rehaul. Oh well, that's OK. I just auto resolve RTW games on very hard campaign difficulty, it's nice if ur up for a challenge! U can lose with 6:1 odds, u know!

    It is coming along very well, you will get your chance. Although @ Philosophos : I hope you don't plan on playing as Romans? Because surely the last thing you want is a battle in the streets of Konstantinoupolis
