True we do mimic, but that is in itself a sign of intelligence. How hard would it to be if RTW had Hard - VH then Mimic level.

In Mimic level it mimics your style of play and picks from the best styles given its current formation. It also learns from campaign to campaign what is the best tactic given a situation.

Even if the Strategic Mimic was simply an order of buildings and then troop mix it would be a step up.
