Hi all - First time poster to this thread and just want to say thank-you for the hard work on the Long Road - this should be closer to what CA should have released!
In general, I'm getting used to it pretty quickly - coming from DarthMod's cash-rich campaign I'm finding that I must become a much more strategic thinker in my construction queues - very fun.
However, I'm also having trouble getting used to the campaign AI. Playing Denmark I'd maintained good relationships with my immediate neighbors and the Pope, allying with the HRE. I'd also taken 1/2 of Ireland when the Scots got into a border dispute with me and next turn I find myself at war with 9 different countries. Investigating, I see the AI allies with other AI players at the drop of a hat and does not want to declare peace with you.
How do other players deal with this?
Maybe I'll try again as Byzantium - at least there I'll expect to be at war with everyone all the time....
