    Naval AI question

    Whenver I let the AI control one of my theaters or whatever I usually assign it some fleets but sometimes it combines those fleets when I don't want it to. My question is how can I keep it from doing that? I separate my fleets for a purpose and I don't want the AI to combine them.

    I haven't clicked the rearrange button but it still does it sometimes. I'm not saying it does it all the times but sometimes it does do this.

    You can try to automate by army group. It sounds as though most players come to prefer using AG or lower for automation. Theatre level likes to do strange things like garrisoning your VP provinces with armored divisions. AI in general is pretty poor at utilizing your surface navy ... thus many players will maintain direct control of those forces. The AI will perform reasonably well with submarines ... often better than the player that loses focus on the submarine micro-management.

    @ smith161 - The AI system for naval (and air) is generally regarded as weak at this time. The new expansion is supposed to be upgrading both of those areas. I would strongly recommend you manually control both areas for maximum effectiveness. The AI tends to get your fleets killed or not utilize them at all, and they cost too darn much and take too long to build to waste.
