How what I am saying is implying that I think building an AI is easy? It took over 50 years to build an AI that can beat human in chess. That does not sound easy to me.

Chess has far, far fewer available moves than any war game does. Chess AI is dealing with a very basic system with hard rules. Doesn't every game have hard rules? And no matter how great a game war in the west is it still operates on a basic system. I don't see the difference. Chess if full of opti...

Regularly beating the best humans sounds pretty strong to me. Playing out of book or using anti computer positions are no quarantee of a victory against a modern chess AI these days. If that would be the case, every top player would still be able to defeat them.

Where did I say they had access or should have access to deep blue or a team of hyper-computing programmers or a budget of millions of dollars? I only made a comment about why chess AIs are so strong.

People seem to forget that computer chess is as old as computers themselves. We talk about decades of research and millions of dollars. I would argue, that given that kind of an effort, any strategy game from civilization to wars of napoleon would have an AI that could regularly compete and beat any...

You also gain reinforcements by losing men in battle. Did you loose an army in a blizzard in the mountains by chance? :D I did not remember that. Although I have not lost that many men which would explain the huge influx of replacement chits I see. BTW I know austrians love to climb mountains and y...

If there are only two ways to get replacements (buying options or building depot bns) then I don't know where I'm getting a bunch of replacements (like 10 or more chits) some turns. For instance early feb 1757 I had only a couple of PRU line infantry replacement chits. Next turn late feb 1757 I had ...

Did you know that...

pressing ALT and left clicking on the force tab enables you to change its name.

This seems to work with every kind of force except armies.

Detection and army radius

When looking at the tooltip of a region the last line says: Detection rating: 2/0 I understand what the first number means. It is your current detection value in that region, but Detection rating: 3/1 or 4/2 What does that last number mean? Also it says in the manual that armies have both attachment...

AI sleeping

Playing with the new 1.0.5c patch. If I play in strict turn based mode the AI does not seem to activate in the warplans phase and in the diplomatic phase. For example after I have selected my warplans and I press pause nothing happens. If I disable strict turn based mode and unpause, AI comes alive ...

Some bugs with 1.04f

First post so hello everybody. I did not have this problem in previous versions. When I try to browse detachments belonging to the same area or army with space or ins (although for me it's the home) key something weird happens. All the event cards start to go up from the bottom left of the screen wi...
