when really its doing the same stupid stuff as before

hey if you want a game where you fight a major battle and only lose 16 men... you will love ETW

Im not being down on you guys, clearly you are the guys that Mr Simpson referred to in his recent blog that like to not have the AI interfere with their plans for global domination, although he tried some nationalistic slant, clearly he needs to broaden his brush.

and when the Indians invade Austria with canoes Im sure that will be genius AI

as Mr Simpson said the problem isnt the AI its that we are too dumb to appreciate its Genius

erm yeh ok

[edit]:


precisely... and clearly some people are alot easier to please

i believe his comments (and i know mine were) were directed at the campaign AI, nobody said anything about battle AI and or difficulty.

but since were nit picking, he prob outnumbered them, and outtech'd them AND he had a strong defensive position on a hill. sounds like the kind of battle where u expect to win with minimal casualties his cannons made most of their units route b4 they got to fighting his line infantry


im not defending CA or sayin the game is perfect. im saying the campaign AI is much improved.

clearly some people like seeing the glass half empty
