Usually AI retreats from province or doesn't attack if it feels it can't win the battle. But I had one interesting case: the enemy attacked my province with significantly lesser forses than I had there. I fought that battle againg and again and always my suckers was running as real battle begins I did all my bests But they always was running It appears that the matter was an enemy general was skilled attaker and had few stars more than my one. I got angry and selected autoresolve battle. Oops... my suckers won easily Besides of autoresolve battle helps sometimes very much, one question arises: how AI decides to attack or to not attack? It seems like that it uses different algorithms when makes such a decision and when autoresolves battle...
