AI Alliances

[anteos]

Hi

If I convince an AI to join me in a war upon a third party, how much effort do they put into the war?

If the joint opponent is on a different continent will they build transports to attack?

Unless the civ actively captures or destroys cities it's sometimes hard to see what effect they have

Im a newb myself BUT I have seen them go both ways. I have had allies that went 100 % out of their way to help. Then I had the stupid babylons take a few troops hit a city a couple times them break the alliance. They did this repeatedly the whole game. The main way you can tell, is if the NME AI is on your doorstep, and you make a alliance with another civ. If the NME AI all the suddens leaves then that means your AI partner is going after them good.

If there is two civs attacking them from 2 sides then you will see the shift in troops.

It is very hit and miss. I tend to not count on them for help, that way if they do it is a bonus.
