I'm in 1757 of a Prestige campaign and the AI has been excellent on H/M.

I've been at peace most of the time. The only instance of a Black Knight AI was when I got a border with the US just recently. As soon as I got a border with them that DOW on me. But I had kicked the French out of most of the colonies and it was clear they were next.

Once I took New France I was even able to ask for peace from the French who accepted.

The rest of the game has been an excellent balance of ensuring trade agreements are kept configured for maximum gain, as nantions blockade each other and I suffer as a concenquence. I've declared war on a few nations because of this.

It's been excellent. However, I realise that as GB you don't have a lot of borders. Still, in this game I a new border with Spain down in Louisiana and they have not DOW on me.

Everything from start to finish has been very realisitic, except the complete inability to trade techs. The AI simply will not do it.

All in all, it's worked out very well. Of course next I'm going to play a continental nation so I can see what all the issues are about.

Nice account of good AI there Prussian Iron. Good to hear.
