AI questions

Post by Jack16 »

I really love this game, right now I am creating a new reich. Just some questions I wonder about the AI and their tactics.

1. Does the AI use amphibious landing ships in invasions? I have seen them sending merchant ships like crazy, but its not a good tactic to send unprotected landings ships into enemy ports.......

2. Does the AI use aircraft carriers with plains? I don't think I ever have seen an enemy or allied aircraft carrier used as it is supposed to be used (like mobile air base that can support ground fighting or air fights).

3. Why is the AI expanding their economies so slowly? Like I build maybe 10 industrial goods facilities in a year (+ much more), while the AI nations maybe build 1 and maybe another building even when they have powerful economy. Is there no way to increase their activity?

4. Have anyone ever seen a AI nation build an industrial complex or a new base on a empty hex? I do know that some nations build it because the space race, but never seen them doing it to build more military industry or economical reasons...

Kind regards

No.. its possible but EXTREMELY rare. Generally the AI will use ships to clear out a port and then merchant marines will land there

NO

Tons of free money and goods can help a small amount
4. Have anyone ever seen a AI nation build an industrial complex or a new base on a empty hex? I do know that some nations build it because the space race, but never seen them doing it to build more military industry or economical reasons...
Doesn't happen.. only reason they do for space race is its scripted

Thank you then!

Do you know if any of those things will be fixed in the upcoming Supreme Ruler 1936 or in an update?

Some corrections;

1. It may, but because it targets to land at piers it gains little from having them. They won't just ignore the ships if they are building a naval invasion force.

2. At times. If it has a carrier and it has planes it may move that carrier to engage and it may call on those planes as being close to the action. It does not well understand the relationship they have though.
