The AI is retarded - literally.

Note the Byzantine Army in Krakow.

Yes, the AI is dumb. I once had a small 2000 man army beset upon by a 14000 doomstack and my fellow crusaders, totaling way over the enemy just sat there and besieged jaffa while my king was maimed in battle and my second son died.

So a bunch of foreign lords who don't care about you should all break the siege they've laid to go save you even though they don't need you at all? I think in that case the AI is correct to let you fend for yourself.

I don't think you would care if it was the AI's heir either, so why should The AI care?

This isn't about the AI making bad decisions - we all know that. What the video shows is a bug. The byzantine army is stationed in krakow, moves out and immediadetly cancels the move order again to repeat it ad infinitum.
