Sweet AI

[demoix]

I happy to see that AI able to form HRE. Bohemia won religiuos war against Chaolitics, then rush with reforms and bam!
Also there is Russia, Spain, GB, Scandinavia. Also Mughals to form is need 1 province.
Also a lot of countrys is westernized.
Have you noticed any more cool improvements of AI?

is this with lucky nations?

how did GH survive?

Im also quick optimistic with 1.8 AI , maybe a few hiccups here and there, but overall I expect the best.

Scotland did in 1.7.3 if it survived. I've seen Nova Scotia in 1.7.3 a few times.

Yeah, but it was often too late to get even 5 provinces. Now it has better chances.

No lucky nations, no bonuses.
GH was long time ally with timurids, who also reformed their goverment quickly

AI is really sweet. I saw AI Wallachia utilizing every opportunity for blobbing. They attacked Hungary after it was stomped by Bohemia (Wallachia got 4 Hungarian provinces in a peace deal) and after that ate the whole Moldavia, which was released from Polish vassalage by me. AI seems to be much more competent is conquest in 1.8. Georgia was also a strong performer, which managed to pick up bits of GH and Circassia in their moments of weakness. I'm quite impressed by AI aggressiveness.
What's even more impressed me is that Kazan, which was a large march then vassal for me managed to reform its government. Never seen this before.

AI feels like it is alot better at war in general, allies keep their units togther creating large stacks and if anyone of them gets attacked the other stack will join in even if they are rather far away often meaning very large battles.

AI England benefited from both trade node redesign and naval AI. It is a force to be reckoned with now, whereas in the past even if player intervention allowed AI England to win the HYW it could be sieged down by a stack of three rebels on either Ireland or Normandy.

I have been really enjoying games with lucky nations turned off. I think the ai interacts well and you'll see rebels and new nations. Only the strong shall survive! lol
