    Default Are they going to fix the very hard battle setting?

    I remember reading something about the moral bonus was not being given to the AI correctly when playing with battles set to very hard? If correct, do they plan to fix this?

    M2 doesn't give any morale or stat bonus' to AI on harder settings, it just makes them 'smarter'.

    Incorrect.

    The game is the hardest of playing on the medium level. It is a bug transfered over from RTW. As I have heard of. never tried the "hard" or the "hardest" to tell you honestly.

    I do think they get narder to break on the harder settings, but they are not smarter.

    Actual AI improvements were only in MTW

    The ai on VH and H does not get bonuses to stats or morale in M2Tw, this was changed from RTW.

    I believe that on hard and very hard, morale and fatigue effects are increased. This actually tends to make it easier as the A.I. is fairly poor (although i've been playing LTC and the A.I. is a lot better than vanilla).

    There was no difficulty bug in RTW.

    So, does anyone know EXACTLY what the HARD and VERY HARD battle settings do?

    So playing on medium battle difficulty is actually harder? I've never noticed that so far.

    Playing a lot of RTW I never noticed the ai was any smarter on hard/very hard just that units were harder to break.

    This begs the question: what does the hard andf very hard setting to in tactical battle? There is no mention in the manual

    It lowers your morale, and increases the negative effect of fatigue on your morale.
    It doesn't give any bonus to the AI.
    When playing on VH, you and the AI have the same morale value.

    So, in the Medium setting, its easier to break the enemy than he can break you?
    I thought it was 1:1 at medium, and got more imbalanced toward the AI on hard/vh...

    Playing VH/VH lowers your own troops morale??

    That's kind of lame, I'd rather my enemies be stronger than my men cowards.

    OK soooooo, did anyone ever find out what exactly the H/VH battle setting does? I still keep being told different things.

    Well if the situation is:
    You them
    Normal/Normal
    and you have a problem with the very hard setting making it
    Low/Normale
    Then edit the EDU so it's
    high/high
    So on very hard it's
    normal/high

    OK I just looked all over the mod forum and can't seem to find any info on how to change these setting. What file is it that you are talking about that has these setting in it? What is the EDU? I'm a noob at all of this. Thank you for your time.

    does morale have a lesser effect on M and H than on VH? for both player and AI? I could see how this would make the lower levels more difficult. i've never played on any level except VH, and my troops morale is always very much superior to the AI due to the fact that my generals are always better and most of the time the AI leads its armies with captains.
