AI Blunders

ALL are garrisoned by less than 50 men! What gives? I WANT him to take them and become stronger! Could it be that the fortification are too big? All have citadels. Would he be forced to assault them because of the small garrison? Does he not think he can afford the losses he will take in said assault? One note, I built them to that level. I took them with mere keeps.

Well, the A.I. would indeed lose a lot of men trying to siege that out. Also, it seems that the Golden Horde is programmed to go for Kiev in reference to any other province.

Once while playing MTW, I was fighting the Egyptians in Arabia (I think). I went into battle with mostly spearmen and archers. The AI had the Egyptians positioned on the highest hill on the map. But there was a small curved ridge connecting a smaller hill to the larger one. So I slowly maneuvered my men up onto the ridge to try and take a position on the back of the large hill, just behind the enemy. Well, being that I was outnumbered, I thought for sure they'd make mince meat out of me. But instead, they moved aside as if to say: "come on up, the view's great!"

Then, the AI made an even dumber move yet. As I moved my spearwall completely onto the hill with the archers following - instead of attacking me, the AI moved its army off the hill and into the valley below. Needless to say, it was like shooting fish in a barrel!
