Skirmish mode (SP)?

[steveh11]

Can someone please describe what this is? The term gets no mention at all on Eugen's page, nor on the main game page at Paradox, nor on Steam... yet "me vs AI" in a random game is precisely what I'd been looking for.

I've been (somewhat) reassured about the lack-of-active-pause problem, but this... this needs elucidation!

Details, please!

Skirmish mode gives you a lobby where you can pick a map and size, adjust the game mode and victory conditions and add AIs to open player slots. You can choose both your and the AIs division decks. It's essentially the same as MP but with only you and AI.
