The ultimate plan is for this AI is to have different personalities to play with each game by selecting from at least five generals per civ. The personalities are meant to reflect the styles of different generals or leaders of the Middle Ages, hence the name of the AI. The AI has the same name as a previous AI of mine, but they're not related at all, just based on the same concept.

The zip file below contains two different AIs. The General is the main AI which plays at full strength. The Sergeant plays around the level of HD with a wider variety of strategies than The General. They are included together because The Sergeant loads the same files as The General but plays with different configuration settings.

Civs supported (all civs are technically playable, but only these civs have been tested and refined):
The General: Aztecs, Britons, Franks, Huns, Incas, Khmer, Magyars, Mayans
The Sergeant: Aztecs, Britons, Franks, Huns, Incas, Khmer, Magyars, Mayans, Mongols, Spanish, Tatars, Turks

All previous versions are available here: link

Team Goals:

The General's team coordination is very limited at the moment, but it does use these commonly accepted goals:

Goal 11 (Town Under Attack): 0 = safe, 1 = town under attack
Goal 46 (Team Position - Pocket/Flank): 1 = flank, 2 = pocket
Goal 392 (Attacking): 0 = not attacking, 1 = attacking
Goal 420 (Identity): The General uses 1492
Goal 499 (Michi cut priority): 4535 = michi cut priority. The General never requests this, but maybe it will someday.
Goals 478/479 (Position Self): 478 = x location, 479 = y location

Thx Leif, i love the concept.
Already tested it. Basics are done. Maybe some issues with the boar (took long to get the 2nd boar after having been found a bite late)
Concerning the other stuffs, and as you said,let's work on some brain

Sounds cool, thank you for your work Leif!

PogChamp

Very nice, thx Leif and gl with it .

New version added. Mostly just fixes the load errors for WK civs, so it should play any civ fine as long as it has knights. Should also build TCs a bit sooner.

I'll likely wait a little while for the next update to add some bigger changes.
