I am quite depressed in consequence of the Artificial Stupidity of the ETW AI.
I visited the doctor yesterday and he said that my brain was literally shutting down due to a magnified dosage of a chemical known as antimendaci, which is a known anti-body specifically used by the immune system to deflect external neanderthalism.
Anyway, I think I know why.
I was playing ETW yesterday and the AI, who had artillery, brought it's best guns out straight through the ranks of infantry (I was watching just to see how the AI would work on offense), pushed the weapons up to my line whilst leaving the infantry and scarce cavalry behind, and once fifty yards away from my troops, halted.
The AI then turned it's artillery around to face it's own troops, who began marching in column towards the artillery.
The cavalry went and hid in the woods - two hundred yards behind their starting point - and the infantry, after reaching the artillery, promptly turned around and lined themselves perfectly prepared for battle in the opposite direction.
After seeing this, I took the disc from the drive and put it inside the case.
Then I bound the case to a branch of pine with 4mm wire and went out into the streets, where I began to shout:
'This is the reason why the human race shall in the next four generations be no more than a demented and disfigured family of apes with supercomputers and washing machines.'
The people of my town rallied behind me and we marched to the oval field, where we set up a cross of 4x4 timber and nailed the branch up.
Then as darkness fell we danced around the flames and sung hymns, lavishing in the death of evil, and later the children were amazed by the sparklers and the old men told stories around the smouldering ash of the crucifix.
Never again.
