TROM does seem to make a big difference to the battle AI, which is why I don't comment on it anymore, as I'm no longer sure if the performance I get is representative of the game or the mod.

I certainly wouldn't waste my time going back to vanilla to find out. If your interested in the history I would certainly urge anyone to try TROM. Although I hear good stuff about DarthMod too.
