The General and The Sergeant 1.2p

Small update for Arena. The General and The Sergeant can play all civs except Armenians and Georgians on Arena, though no civs are heavily tested on this map. Technically The General can play all non mule cart civs on Arabia too, but they aren't heavily tested.

- Adds preliminary support for Arena by loading the defensive castle drop strategy for all civs (still can't play Armenians & Georgians). This strategy was previously only used for Spanish and Turks for The Sergeant, and it was originally designed for the Nomad tournament. Seems to work fine even if it won't be strong on all civs.
- Disables DUC army micro on walled maps
- Fixed a bug which could delay tech research for scouts
- Slightly modified castle placement for Arena
- Slightly modified attacking conditions for The Sergeant

Version 1.2q:

- adds "The Squire" AI which plays around the level of the Moderate difficulty DE AI
- all difficulty levels are now supported and tested for The General
- increased attack requirements for lower difficulties to be less aggressive
- made training delays on lower difficulties more consistent and no longer random
- build orders are more adaptable if number of trained villagers differs from the default build order
- fixed a bug caused by using up-modify-goal when up-modify-flag was intended
- fixed a bug that could prevent cavalry techs from being researched when scouts were the only cavalry unit being trained

Re: The General 1.2r (includes The Sergeant and The Squire)

Version 1.2r:

- Very light update which no longer requires military superiority to train rams in imperial age, just total military numbers. Mostly an attempt to fix the no siege issue in one of the ladder matches, but I suspect the bug is elsewhere.

The General 1.2s:

- Adds files to play The General in a way that mimics The General's play at lower difficulties when Extreme difficulty is played. This allows you to mix and match different strengths of the same AI in your matches. The commanders for each difficulty are as follows:
  • Extreme: The General
  • Hardest: The Captain
  • Hard: The Lieutenant (used to be called The Sergeant)
  • Moderate: The Sergeant (used to be called The Squire)
  • Standard: The Conscript
- Fixes a bug with unique unit training for non-General commander AIs
- Fixes a bug where the Tatars wouldn't load a strategy for non-General commander AIs

Note: The Conscript seems to have a few bugs to iron out. Hopefully will be fixed in a later version.
