    not on subject for ... the answers, but

    IMO the landbridges become essential for the computer ai to act rationally and effectively. the ai becomes landlocked often in the 1st medieval game if the bridges are removed. it has some trouble getting crusades to move to the orient across constantiople if there isn't a bridge. i remember many times even in rome total war the scippi and brutti would not act well with their fleets. they would not take advantage of their fleet advantages and they would not do seabourne invasions in any concrete way. many times i saw the brutti move armies up the peninsula of italy and back down the balkan side instead of just ferrying the army straight across to greece.

    The AI is much better at seaborne invasions in BI.
    "I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."

    Senator Augustus Verginius
