Dear All,
We're pleased to announce that Empire patch 1.6 will soon be released containing the much anticipated Battle AI improvements.
The AI has been improved to allow it to handle formations better, form and maintain lines and reduce the occurrence of unnecessary melee behavior. It also reduces non reactive fort assault behavior.
Whilst this is not the improved AI system from Napoleon Total War, it does make a significant advancement on Empire's current Battle AI.
Thank you all for your patience and constructive feedback, we're keen to continue to support you in the manner you support us.
The update will go live at approximately 1700GMT today 31 March 2010.
Kind regards,
Kieran
