So what other house rules to people use, without using an entirely different mod, to try and give the AI a decent chance?[/QUOTE]





House Rules i usually use is this:

Rule 1: I can only have 2 units for every command a general has. (so 2 Command = 4 units. 10 command = 20 units.

Rule 2: This is little harsh but you can only have max 2 generals in one army, you can have only 1 if you want but i think that is too much restriction i think. Also i must have a general to control an army, i can only transport 1 unit at a time if i have to go without a general. So like an army without general can not be more than 1.

Rule 3: You can not under no circumstance make peace with a faction you start war with (depending if you play the expansions) or you can not make peace with a faction you attack or create war with. You can only make peace if the faction comes to you with peace agreement.

Though if the faction attack you, you can try to make peace with them.

Rule 4: You can only have true family members/blood relatives. No Adoptions.


This Rules is the ones i usually do if i wan't a really challenging campaign.
