    I remember a high elf campaign, I had sent an army over just to see how Elf Batman was doing, and fought some Dark Elves.
    Alistair the white lion on a dragon, like 4 extremely stressed spearmen, and a bunch of archers versus Malekith and Morathi, two full stacks of dread spears (and two manticores).
    It did not go well, but I won, due to the dragon belly flopping onto every dreadspear unit repeatedly, with only a sliver of health left after fighting off Malekith, Morathi, and the Manticores in the air, while 3 units of archers hid in the forest to prevent me from losing. Victory was earned, but not deserved.

    You know, I'm surprised game companies don't just use a learning AI nowadays. I mean, they made one capable of winning LoL professional tournaments years ago, so surely it's possible.
    [EDIT] What you'd want is at least two AI, one for Grand Strategy, and one for the battles. For difficulty the battles AI would be easy to fix, just put a cooldown on their APM. So for example the easiest mode would still have the hardest AI, but they would only be able to make an action every two to three seconds, as opposed to the hardest which would be able to act every 0.25th-0.5th of a second. As for the grand AI... the best I can think of is limiting the number of things they're allowed to do in a single turn, like forcing them to only make a percentage of the actions they would otherwise make, which would result in some armies being left stagnant and some cities underdeveloped.

      The purpose of an IA isn't to win. It's to provide a fun challenge. It would not be difficult to code an IA which can dodge AOE spells (the IA of Warhammer 1 could do that for a time), but you would lack the fun of burning 200 people with a single cast. The purpose of the current IA is to be reasonably stupid so you get a lot of battles where the odds are against you and you have to be cunning to exploit its weakness in order to win. This is also why the IA will sometimes not attack you with everything it has and let some army in reserve.

      @@antcig Except the ultimate challenge is for some the ultimate fun. Heck, for some people it doesn't even have to be a fair challenge. I also never said anything about it specifically made for more challenge, in fact what I suggested included methods to make it easy despite still being the smartest AI as possible.
      I would say that you can only benefit from a smarter AI, and that if you have to make the AI intentionally stupid then it's the system that's faulty, not the AI exploiting it. Finally, "fun" is completely subjective, and so using the arguing that something would be more or less "fun" is completely pointless.
