AI runs around?

Is it just me, or does sometimes the AI infantry sometimes runs around absorbing artillery fire and keep shifting positions? They seem to do this for awhile until they become very tired/exhausted and then attack.

The AI is not good on this game, it's just something you'll have to live with mate

It's called the dreaded "melee" or "leapfrog" bug. It's an AI programming problem that plagued both ETW and NTW. There are some mods out there that minimize this though.

It is certainly annoying. Just sticking with vanilla until they finish the tank skins on the Great War mod, which might take awhile...

Yes, authentic 19thC tactics, apparently.
