AI recruiting priorities

Yes, I have encountered quite a few "artillery armies" in my English campaign as well... It seems, this is something that got inherited from RTW - AI would build artillery heavy armies there as well...

i think the thing with egypt and their seige engine armies seems to bew a specific bug. in two seperate campaigns, as the englsih and the sicilians i have arrived in egypt on my way to jeruselem, to find v poorly defended cities and field armies comprising mostly seige weapons!

Currently playing a campaign as the English (H/VH) and I have yet to notice any armies loaded with too many siege engines.

I will say that the Peasant problem from MTW is back! To be honest it's not nearly as bad as it was in vanilla MTW but I still see the AI using them when it clearly shouldn't. There's no excuse for the AI to be using Peasants when more effective units like Town and Spear militias are available. I sincerely hope modders do away with the option to build Peasants altogether.

There seems to be a random factor thrown in to give the AI armies a little more variety. Unfortunately it causes some artillery or peasant armies to appear. I have not run into anything this bad but its probably just a matter of time.

I just hope the modders will find ways to remove the option to build peasants completely. Whether historically accurate or not its awfully boring to face on the battlefield.
