With that being said I would like to know if there is any way to prevent the AI from spamming recon aircraft, as they tend to overdo it quite a bit.

Secondly I noticed that after 1943 you can no longer buy nor upgrade most Italian units, so I was left wondering whether this was done intentionally to reflect the historical date on which Italy dropped out of the war and if so then the new Italian units in the update 0.45 need to have their dates changed from 1946 to 1943.

Ether way I will be looking forward to what future updates have in-store, so thank you and have a good one!

Hi,

A problem with the AI is that it sometimes purchases the cheapest unit of a kind in great numbers. If the showup of many enemy recon aircraft is a problem we have to make them more expensive so the AI will buy other units. But in which scenario you see this? In the big Poland scenario there are many Polish recon aircraft already in the game. This are all historical squadrons.

I do not know if we are so happy with Italian core units. In the mod the Axis Italians end to exist in 1943. Allied Italians and RSI Italians take over then but this units have a different country number. We didn't look at it to much by now. It will have our attention.

Thanks for your compliments

Yes I know. I saw this before in Polish scenarios. The AI purchased only Ft-17 tanks in great numbers. It seems the AI is always purchasing (te same) cheap units.

Better solution is to reduce the number of AI core unit slots. Currently is set at 18, with 13 core units placed on the map (big Poland scenario). This means the AI can buy (providing there's enough prestige) 5 units on turn 1 and then replace any further destroyed core unit as the scenario progresses.

It would be a better solution to instead place a few more Allied units on the map at the start of the scenario and reduce the number of total Allied core slots to something like 3-5 or so. This way AI will have prestige to do replacements and reinforcements but won't be able to buy new units until it loses many core units (until the number drops below 5 or whatever it was set).
