Pardon...? Are you saying that my Titanimum Geforce 4 graphic card with its 128 MB is not going to make a difference...??

AI is good? Where? When?
Meandor is ready to make peace with you (if you play julia), and you can move a big army near to his city without problem, he's not interested to create units to defend himself. When you kill yaka he is so stupid to declare war, a dumb wizard with his poor ballista against unicorn, crossbowmen, longbowmen heroes ecc
I don't think that AI will be never good as a human player

He eventually does declare war if you leave armies parked outside his main city. I surrounded him with about 8 full stacks. A couple of turns later, he declared war. But he never dared to attack me or leave his city..

I used cpu Knight because was a rule for the may challenge, but I used also other cpu (squire and king), maybe I'll try higher cpu, thanks for the hint
2 turns to declare war against a wizard who place 8 full stacks near my city is too much in my opinion

War, day 15, CPU emperor (for yaka and meandor)
meandor offer peace in day 3, I accept and move to yaka, when I arrived in day 6 he had 5 ballista so I retreated
now I had 5 cities, meandor 2 cities and yaka only one
The problem about AI is that he don't attack me if he is not sure of his victory so he wait while I take the indipendent cities
Ok now can I say "AI is good? Where? When?"?
With a higher cpu the AI is better but not good (in my opinion) but because a good AI (as good as a human player) is impossible I prefer have the old unit description, I don't think that it's too much work to make them so why the devs delete them?

Yeah, they could keep many from the first episodr (maybe changing them a bit) and made some for the new races... geeez and I miss a lot even units portraits, they were wonderful!
