i thought everybody was wrong-oh well

[tomdy2k]

hi

well, i thought everyone here was wrong. I installed the game. set the difficulty to hard and right away they captured one of my cities. as i started building my forces up they started moving all kinds of units towards me. this is the americans . i'm the vikings, i thought oh boy"this will be a challenge."well , it turns out the enemy does nothing but move around and hide in thier cities till i build up and re-capture. is this the best the AI can do? If it is forget it. it makes for a boring game. the enemy threatens me unless i fork over dough but does nothing. i think i got a dud on my hands.

They say the AI Frenzy modification gives you a really hard time.. unfortunately I can't get it to work because I haven't got the patch and can't download it to disks (so far).

Hi Tom,
If you change your readiness level from 'War' to
'Alert' they will attack. Of course, your troops are
not up to max.
