I think the same could be said for the lunatic in real life.

AI usually play as foolish as possible . The war between you & AI is too unbalance ! Your skill is maybe 10 times better than AI ! Poor AI !

We do hope Axis will unify the world in 1945!

While tactically the AI is horrible and playing against the AI is no way to learn tactics; I think I've discovered a strategic use; in addition to the fun of beating up on an inferior opponent.

Playing against the AI let's one determine the logistics, lab, build, redeployment and disposition of forces strategies for a given overall strategy. It also lets you set the bounds on what are reasonable goals and timelines might be. It you can't achieve your strategic goals and timelines against the AI then you know it's impossible to achieve them against a human opponent.

Did I mention that it's also fun to beat up on the AI and you can do that without any guilt. The AI doesn't care and won't quite. It'll keep playing a game as long as you wish. And; the AI doesn't care if you get tired and decided to quite. It will also play as many turns in a row as you wish.

I just got a notice from photobucket, where I host the pictures for this AAR, that my account has reached the maximum monthly 10-GB bandwidth limit. So until that resets then all my pictures will not post. What's confusing, for me at least, is that the reset date is suppose to be on the day of the month that you opened the account, which was the 2nd back several years ago. It looks to me like the bandwidth counter didn't reset on that date. So I really don't know when it's going to really rest. So I ask for your patience until then. As a teaser; I finished this AAR a week ago and posting a turn a day (or so). Again, I'm on hold until the bandwidth counter resets itself.

I got tired for the bandwidth to reset; so I'm using my dog's photobucket account.

By the way, if you want to review the previous posts of this AAR; I've unloaded the AAR in it's entirety to a google "harddrive". You are welcome to view, download and / or use as you wish.
