    I see we've finally gotten so tired of the AI we're changing things ourselves. Way cool! Here we are, an amateur CA that's making RTW a better game for the bright future! *RTW Roman Triumph fanfare plays in background*

    One thing's for sure, that'd mean that my current swordsmen strategy will no longer work, where I try to force the enemy single line to move to the right by threatening a right outflanking with cavalry, so the real blow--dealt unconventionally by infantry on the left--will be concealed and facilitated by the enemy uncovering of flanks.

    A question, though-- does it mean I will have a chance to face all different formations if I set all priorities to an equal 0.5?

    DarthVader has done extensive ai formation modding over at twc. The base AI is the same, but he's done a lot of stuff to improve it. You won't be blown away, but it's definately an improvement.

    I don't believe so. Based on the results of Screeching Elephant Hurler if all of the formations are set to an equal priority, the one the appears first is the one that is chosen.

    It could also be that it goes by alphabetical order if the priorities are equal. SEH, you should do another test with AB, BB, and AA with AA being last in the order. That would get acurate results if it goes by alphabet or sequential order.
