The best games vs the computer will be on high chance, in non conquest games. Conquest mode is new and is different AI, for the computer to solve at the moment. I al still working on the AI though, it would be nice to have him coordinate attacks like you suggested, and that will probably be added at some point.
Update: 1.20 ~ (9/15) Armageddon is now 32 magic to cast. AI allies has been tweaked some. Added a randomizer to Armageddon. Added some extra help buttons. Fixed tutorial start. Fixed stockpiles color in options menu.
Renee, I meant that, it was working as I intended it, and coded it. I asked for your feedback so I could tweak it, and make it more enjoyable to players like you. I don't word stuff well, I guess. Sorry didnt mean to come off that way, I think you have helped a lot with this game.
Renee, Should I tone down the magic level gain back down to 5ish? Or you think I should just raise the cost of armageddon? I tried to make the AI more friend/foe kinda thing, because I wanted to make the AI be able to make "friends" with players and maybe even side with them. I am interested to hear what you think should be tweaked. Remember as a programmer, it is hard for me to test everything because I am around the game so much, all your guys feedback helps a lot.
Kraken it is actually pretty close to that as it is, it needs some tweaking, this was the first real adjustment to it. Give me some feedback about your experience to help me tweak it out. The percentage idea is cool, but as it is, the AI only will focus more on people who beat them down, and every year the allies heal some, so if you stop attacking one, depending on how much damage you did, he will eventually go back to normal with you.
Updated: Trades should be a bit better, Stockpile movement and protection should be improved, replan button on stockpile move, Modified AI special unit use.
renee, the AI has been changed to attack people it does not like. So if you kicked the crap out of yellow, and blue didnt attack him much, then he followed his code to attack you. I wanted to make the allies more friend/foe kinda thing. If you leave an AI alone he may not nuke you. witches add is correct and was corrected a couple versions ago. I am still working on trade, so you may see some glitches till next update which should be today.
