ALEX.exe significantly worse A.I.?

Thread moved

Since this is clearly not a EB specific bug I moved the thread into the Gameplay subforum.

No campaign is the same so your problems might not affect other players,
The time I used Alex to play EB I received good results, troops were retrained, AI's campaign map movement was over all good and well thought, some minor naval invasions happened (though less than with BI), diplomacy was more stable.
On the other side the battlemap movement isn't that good in battles with reinforcements, maybe you want to check that this doesn't happen too often and can enjoy the battles again.
Overall, Alex is an improvement IMHO.

BTW: Even ShogunII now has problems if the AI gets reinforcements.....

Because this isn't exactly a gameplay thread, I think it belongs to the general forum.

Thread moved (again).

well, the babystacks is because the 1 turn unit recruitments, alex EB works best if you turn recruitments into 0 turn and see they spew halfstacks after halfstacks to your territories

sorry about the placement issue, i wasn't sure what this would categorize as.

yesterday i fought Rome again and it was actually a pretty fun fight, they actually had the Hastati/Principe/Trarii formation and i was really really excited to see that. I took many mental screenshots because this never happened before
