Here's an experimental version of Immortal with the latest civs.
There were many changes that were necessary to make the mule carts work.
I have not had time to test it properly.
Woop! Great to see it playing new civs :)

One thing I've noticed on Arena with this version is that Immortal deletes its walls really early - like mid castle-age. I've done tests on v0.10c on Arena before and I don't recall them going that soon. In these scenarios Immortal is actually losing so deleting the walls ends up throwing the game. Is that something different or has it always done that?
Walls should be deleted much later in the most recent versions. At some point I would like to get rid of it but they are causing too many pathing issues atm :head

Hi!

I'm new here. After Viper's showcase of the last AI tournament I downloaded it and I've been playing it. Since then I have played about 50 games against it. First of all let me say this is fantastic work TheMaximalBeign! Congratulations and thank you, I'm having a great time facing Immortal.


I'll share some of my notes on it in case they're helpful for you.

Thanks for the feedback :D

1. I'm still not sure why it's ignoring wolves. I've tried to fix it multiple times. It seems to work fine in the scenario editor.

2. We (AI scripters) don't have the necessary commands to check for walled in units. We would need more reliable pathing commands that can check if a path to a unit is available.

3. Should be more likely to attack walls around a walled-in opponent in the recent versions. It may be a bit buggy sometimes (due to the limited + buggy pathing commands we have available).

4. boar laming was disabled for now. It's super easy to counter just by luring your boars early. But I might re-activate it vs. human opponents.

5. there are actually two militia strats: maa or drush. The timing is different for each. It can also go straight archers or skirms. Try byzantines, mayans or britons to make this more likely. If it detects a close opponent then it will likely switch to a drush strat.

6. It should be better at avoiding excess militia + MAA upgrade when not needed in the latest versions.

7. It doesn't really know how to counter a siege push at this stage. Could take a while before I get around to this.

8. Once it starts building towers it will usually fall behind in army numbers so it will likely end up needing more to defend itself.

Tested Arms, Romans, and Georgs on Arabia and Arena. They worked well without any major bugs (so far). I'm guessing the monk gameplay is still being worked on, noticed Arms didn't build a church on Arena. Also, this AI highlights how silly the Monaspa are.
That's interesting. I never tested the Georgians properly but went for Monaspa just based on the stats.

Thankful that there is a new Immortal update so soon. Every day I play my games with this AI, literally hundreds of hours with it. :dance

In post-imperial deathmatch, Immortal v0.10f always builds trebuchets with escrow, even with little to no military. These trebuchets get in the way of the other units in the queue

Immortal v0.10e doesn't have this problem
