Edwin P. Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 Simple Question - Will the Axis and Allied AI be more aggressive in the Med Theater of Operations as compared to SC1? [ May 24, 2004, 10:53 PM: Message edited by: Edwin P. ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J P Wagner Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 I do hope so, because leaving Italy and Greece undefended allowing you to use the units which should be on defence elsewhere, was an AI game killer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 I've said many times the A.I needs a complete overhaul. Esp. in the sense that the Axis A.I. never attacked Norway and launch operations in the med. as well as other things that the Axis did historicly and made them harder to beat.

Edwin P. Posted May 25, 2004 Author Share Posted May 25, 2004 One thing that the Allied AI needs to do in the Med is to threaten two fronts at once to draw the Italian navy to one side while using amphibious transports to launch invasions from the side. In this respect, I think that the addition of amphibious transports to the unit mix will make it easier for the AI to lauch invasions against unguarded cities as the defender will not have a free turn in which to operate units in to defend it. Thus the AI can move a unit to the coast, land and take the city in one turn with an amphibious transport. The key is that the AI needs the intelligence to make a guess as to where the Italian naval units are to minimize the chance of a transport being sunk. It also needs to know how to scout out enemy cities to determine if they are ungaurded for an amphibious invasion.
