    I noticed that in some battles I play, the AI acts logically and is actually able to hold a line and put up a good fight. However in other battles I noticed that get all bunched up at mine line and constantly just move around right in front of my line, getting slaughtered by my infantry. I've noticed they act stupid when I place my cannons on the line with my infantry, the AI seems to get confused what to attack first, my line or my cannons. Anyone else notice this?

    i used the one BAI mod out there and it seems to fix the problem of blobs and irregular lines... however i noticed this after my mods were deactivated with the new DLC that came out: the mod i used seemed to make the AI more linear... when i didnt have the mod activated it seemed that units would try to flank my line far more often instead of just marching up and blasting away... hopefully with time the AI mod can have the best of both features for the vanilla AI and the modded AI

    I find the BAI does much better in open spaces, particularly with the Luntik AI mod. They form lines pretty well and tend to melee charge less. When you confine or constrict the AI into a tight area it doesn't perform very well, vanilla or mod. I've even modified my playing style a bit to account for this (when possible), and try to give the AI some room to maneuver.

    If you deploy beyond a choke point it will be a "turkey shoot" as they will all mass in these areas and advance toward your lines, so I try not to deploy there when possible. I continue to try and find ways to modify the way I play so that I can have a more "traditional" Napoleonic battle but unfortunately, not all battles will not turn out that way.
