Much easier to beat AI in T&P demo

[splooger]

In the the original RON I could never win vs. the tough AI, but in the T&P demo I can beat tough AI fairly easily (at least using the Romans and Persians) Anyone else have the same experience? T&P tough feels like the RON moderate level or slightly worse to me. I was afraid this would happen and I think it may be due to the AIs inability to use all the bonuses from governments and patriots to its advantage.

Well i have only tried the demo on tougher... .

The ai attacks very often too early. It often tries the "one-city" rush and if that fails the game is almost won. If the ai doesnt atack that early, the games used to be harder. In tough as i recall, the ai was very likely to atack early. In ron without expension i had the impressen that moderate was harder than tough because of the better ai boom... .
