Likes easy battles trait - what do you think?

The AI should cheat with stars... And with chevrons too! It's the only way to get a decent long-ish battle... I remember in the Roma mod every AI general automatically came of age or was adopted with a retinue member called 'Fruity little helper' which gave +3 command, management and influence... I loved it... I think EB should have one.

Funny.

EB's AI generals and governors get varying degrees of help, depending on what they are doing. It's easier for them to get command stars after a battle or when out campaigning. They can't complete missions like triumphs or Alexander's body, so they are at a disadvantage to the player. I also block them off from getting the Bored trait or other things that they couldn't possibly know to avoid.

Could it possibly be scripted for something like, every AI city has an invisible building which gives +2 chevrons and morale to each unit trained there? It wouldn't even make much of a difference because a large percentage of units in EB have a missle weapon to throw before fighting, and the human player knows how to line his men up and throw the missles as the AI are charging, or before we charge into the AI, which lowers AI morale considerably... Resulting in a very short and not very enjoyable battle...

There would be nothing to stop the player from using those buildings once he conquered the settlement, since we can't destroy buildings through scripting.
