Talk about insult to injury

So last night i was playing my Prussian campaign and i was moving a full stack of my troops from Italy up to take Copenhagen. Well, i got there two turns too late because Sweden used an almost full stack to take Copenhagen. I decided i was going to take Copenhagen anyways since i already had my troops there. This is where the proverbial hit the fan and apparently the CAI went crazy.

So the computer's turn before i made my move to Denmark, Sweden did something really odd. They moved ALL of their troops out of Copenhagen, unit by unit. Every single unit moved out individually from a full stack of troops and they all went as far away as possible. So I figured whatever and then landed my troops in Denmark, but i don't have enough movement to actually get to Copenhagen. So i end the turn and what happens? Sweden starts moving all their troops back to Denmark one by one. Then, the game freezes because apparently the CAI of Empires went so crazy that it caused my CPU to have a freaking stroke. What the hell is the deal here? Nice one CA...

I dont know why but Sweden seems ot do that crazy breaking down a stack, moving it one by one and rebuilding it, breaking it down, moving it ad infinitum. I usually see it on the road from Stockholm to Helsinki-back and forth,unit by unit.

Not much you can do about it. Sorry about that.
I know a few mods that help with the BAI and balancing in general, but the pathfinding seems to be something out of reach.

I've pretty much given up on ETW, had some fun but just too many silly things like this even when modded to the max. If you feel like a multiplayer game of RTW, PM me!
