This may sounds like sour grapes however it annoys me that the AI can move reinforcements into a provence when I invade but we the humans have to second guess and prepare for the AI to invade at any point. I believe we should get the option to 'move troops in' from a neighbouring provence when the AI faction invades to make things fair. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/idea.gif

Historically Harold Godwinson waited on the English channel for William of Normandy but then marched his men up the great north road to meet Tostig and Harold Hardrada as the Vikings invaded. As we know he won and marched back in time to be defeated by the Normans; this should be reflected in the game.

i think its because the game has turns and you are the first one to make your turn and then the computer does its turns

But whats annoying is when the devs come and say its random when it clearly isn't http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/redface.gif .

Also the AI can simulataneously control all his units in battle, issuing them different direction and engagement orders.

Not that it seems to help him much, but it is an advantage. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/joker.gif

I'm not so sure about the premise, though it does seem as though the AI cheats sometimes. I've watched the AI factions shuffle around armies with no apparent purpose when there are no attacks - one army moves out of a province only to have two armies move into that same province from adjacent provinces.

BTW, SeljukSinan, cool as the image in your sig is, it is way too large in display size. There is/was a discussion about this in the Tavern about this. The image should be no more than 10k and not much bigger than the avatars. If an image is too large in file size, the 56k guys get hammered and if it is too large display size, those with low screen resolutions (800x600) get horizontal scroll bars (annoying). Would you be so kind as to shrink it?

Edit: Doh You changed it while I was posting http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/joker.gif Thanks.

Hey Greg

Please accept my apologies. I really like Kanji and wanted to use that image, unfortunately it's way too large. I did not realise this initially but once I noticed I changed the image immediately. This was all done with good intentions, of a better presentation of my signature. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Just there to make it a little harder for you. Its cheating but most AI cheat in most game. With a few exceptions of course.
