Games versus the AI, nostalgia edition

[Deicide4u]

Now for something a bit different. The games here will be played in A23b, with the intention of highlighting AI differences between this and later versions.

I struggled a bit in my first recorded game, mainly because of a lack of worker counters and Call to Arms. The AI is much more difficult, though. It simply doesn't stop making units.

Anyway, enjoy the game, assuming you can watch it

Iberians VS Carthage on Corinthian Isthmus. Back and forth, until I finally broke his defense.

Spoiler

Man, it's hard to play these games in this heat. They take far too long. Petra in this version likes to chain Fortresses, and charges my rams as soon as they come close.

A better part of "Gold Rush" scenario. It's a fun map full of action...when you finally get some resources, at least.

Romans VS Kushites on snowy Mainland. Beautiful map.

Spoiler

Elite priests are broken.

Another Roman conquest, this time on Zagros Mountains. Fun little chaos with all that lag in the late game.

Not the cleanest game, but Zagros Mountains is really a good map for these skirmishes. Population cap set to 200, to avoid massive lags in late game.

Spoiler

The collision system is the most obvious during the massive battle on the shallows. I had to pull my forces several times just to unstuck them. Defenders advantage is real in this case, and good wall placement can further hinder the assault.
