    Only thing I have altered was to include the slave faction in the script. To represent the always present thread of piracy during that time.

    Hey Aneirin,

    I played on Hard/hard, which is my go-to formula.

    However, do you recommend a different setting?

    Thanks!

    I always play Medieval 2 VH/VH, to be frank.

    I am not that fond of VH. In particular because of the AI bonus in battle (number of hits).

    You have one of the best BAI I have seen, and on Hard.

    But what about the CAI? Did you try it on VH?
    Do the rebels attack the player?

    Cheers, but that is Germanicu's work

    As for your question, I adjusted the slave's AI to be more active on the campaign map.
    So they'll probably will attack

    You mean you adjusted the slaves' AI to be more aggressive on Hard difficulty in the new upcoming patch?

    Hey Aeirin,

    any feedback regarding my question? I would like to start a new campaign and wondering if I should play on vh/vh or h/h

    And a couple more questions: did you finally include a garrison script for key cities?

    Cheers.

    Hey there,
    as for your question, yes I did alter the slaves so they are going to be more aggressive
    I'd suggest H/H, but that should depend on your own preferences.

    About the garrison script, I am afraid no, I did not include it. To be honest I am not very fond of it in terms of gameplay. They provide a too great advantage to the AI.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    To be honest the AI needs every help it can get and the Garrison Script, for at least key capitals, is a nice, realistic AI boost as it represents the inhabitants taking up arms to defend the city.

    I understand you do not like VH battle AI because of the unrealistic morale and hit points to the AI.
    But what about Campaign AI?
    Did you test it at VH? Is it more aggressive or rather suicidal?

    I have been watching the new Let's Play in French on YT ( I shared the link a few posts above) and he is paying at H/H and I feel the AI can be a tad more aggressive and have better morale in battle.
    So maybe VH/VH is worth testing?

    So when can we expect this highly anticipated update to be finally released?
    I am delaying my new campaign waiting for this

    Cheers,
    DBW
