    Default AI Fails Thread

    Please post any hysterical AI fails here.

    I will go first. Even with a good mod like DMUC 6.0, BAI is pretty awful. Cavalry seem to have difficulty understanding the unique and confusing concept of walls (see first attachment).

    I also started a fun campaign as Austria. I got tons of alliances and then declared war on everyone in the world, triggering all sorts of wars. This greatly speeds up diplomatic craziness, leading to one of the funniest things I have ever seen...(see second atatchment).

    DarthMod Ultimate Commander 6.0... Actually it turned out to be a good trade since it stopped me (Prussia, superpower by that point) from expanding in India. I actually could have, but I didn't want to make the Iroqouis mad...

    A few times i have had an AI enemy unit that just stands in a corner of the map and just does absolutely nothing. And when fired upon, they still does nothing (except for dying ofc).

    Also one of the biggest AI fails, is when you charge an enemy unit, then the unit will not run straight, they run left to right or something like that.......

    When your "soldier/general" voice says "Enemy fleet spotted all hands on deck" when you are on dry land.........

    DMUC 6.0 ROCKS

    And yes, although there should be a website, I my laziness beats out desire for productivity on everything more than a forum thread

    Thats weird. Playing the campaign on hard I get quite a few of protecterates, alot of them offer a turn or two after declaring war on me. Thats another AI fail. US Spain and France declaired war on me. My turn and I have a small clash with some iraquois and on the next end turn the US Spain Iraquois and France offer to pay me to become my proterate.

    I no longer have the screen shot but I routed a unit of artillery, they got half way across the map and decided to regroup, turned and fired quicklime shells from there swords (and ranged almost twice what there howitzers did). Its very hard to win a battle when the enemy shoots long range artillary shells from there swords.
