Of all the things to fix in this title, Naval battle balancing would be in the bottom tier of my list.
The land battle AI is dismal at best.
The strategic Black Knight AI prevents me from playing more than a few turns before quitting in disgust. Continually annihilating opponents with no fear of loss, and no chance at peace is only fun once.
And CA wants to ensure players use more frigates and sloops in Naval MP? Are you kidding?
However as I don't play MP I see this having minimal impact on the SP campaign as I doubt the AI will grasp the concepts.
