He does, indeed, have powers that we know not of.

It is very, very difficult to get AI counties to rebel, but not impossible, except for the Bishop, who is a special case. I starved a county to near death over several years by burning all their fields and industries, yet it never rebelled. Its somewhat amusing to take one of these counties after the fact and try and rebuild it before they revolt again. His last ditch to get any value out of it.

Usually you will know revolt is close when the AI pops a large peasant army from the village and hurls it at you. Once you hit them the first time they will never have the population to create more anyway. You dont have to worry about huts if youre doing this. The quickest way I have found is to make a number of one man armies and station them near each industry and cluster of fields. But contiune to destroy everything, fields, industry, huts, everything and they will break off eventually. I would imagine the AI gets a benefit on that which the player does not. They will rebel at some point but it takes forever. How do i get the AI counties to rebel though? If you've superior missle troops, you can use this to bottleneck them into a bridge or similar, thus minimising your losses.

Thirdly you'll see that there is a point where once you've shot at them enough, they break turtle formation and chase you. If you shield your archers with a wall of pikemen, then you can take these guys out relatively cheaply (the same tactic is true of sieges). Secondly you'll see that if you send in your archers the computer will respond by bringing his archers forwards. Yes, that tends to be how the AI works, however there are better solutions than just piling in:įirstly you'll notice that the turtling process begins with different groups of units, so it tends to leave the archers behind, which can be intercepted by a group of knights, or perhaps macemen. Is that supposed to happen? Because every battle just has me rush my pike/swords into melee supported by archers and then i raise game speed to 10 and watch the fireworks. Question: Oh and i noticed that every battle has the AI turtling in a corner of the map unless they massively outnumber me.
