First of all I would like to thank Frogboy for all the hard work he has put into the AI and making the game moddable.
This mod is for everyone looking for a more challenging AI. It basically teaches the AI to play more like me!
Changes
-Reprioritizes the build order of practically every improvement and several techs. In particular they will build unrest and production buildings first most of the time. As a result AI cities are much more developed midgame.
-The AI likes to build more elite units now.
-Changes and adds tons of units to make sure the AI has good choices to choose from. Removes tons of bad designs.
-AI is is sightly better at choosing spells and champion traits.
-AI is more effected by distance and less by time. So far away players will tend to ignore you and you will receive less diplomatic penalties late game. I tried to get AIs to fight to the death more.
-Taught the AI to better play as the more unique factions such as Roseln and Magnar.
-Added some isworthy tags to several spells, so for instance Widows will no longer debuff the same unit twice.
-1 or 2 tiny balance changes to underpowered units or abilities to make the AI better at using them. These are in the AIBalance+ file and you can delete them if you want.
-Other stuff I forget.
Download: Here
To install unzip the files to the mod folder at My Games\LegendaryHeroes\Mods and then go into the core files at Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\FE Legendary Heroes\data\English and delete the CoreAIUnits file. I also recommend you check the units folder and delete any old units.
Only compatible with my armor visual mod so far, but they do work nicely together. I am working on my Additional Races mod as well.
Please comment below on bugs and balance. I am also looking for some well thought out unit designs to include. PM me or give me a link.
Plans and Random Thoughts
-The Magnar AI still builds nothing but slaves ever. I tried adding AItags to their units with no luck. Thus I had to do a workaround and remove every slave unit that wasn't basic infantry, so they will build some Quendar units.
-The AI stunts some of its cities by training units immediately after they settle a new city. This is not smart.
-More unit designs!
-Roseln builds a lot of useless spiders.
-I wish there was a proximity variable that showed how many tiles away the nearest enemy is. I could write a lot of nice isworthy tags for spells with that.
-The AI still chooses stupid paths for it's sovereigns and champions. I wish I could add a AITrait to champions so that I could prioritize them choosing certain traits.
-Other stuff.
Modders are freeloaders that use DEVELOPERS design and tools to modify a game. They are hardly professionals and most likely do NOT test what they have made many times over or use others to test the BALANCE issues of what they have done. Graphic modders are another thing and I have no qualm with them. But, those that change number around and core things that are possible to change I will always be leary of and so should everyone else.
I would beg to differ. Modders sometimes do often make original stuff - sometimes total conversions are often better than the games that were before them.
Even XML modders can be good - look at some of the GC2 community mods for example. They have through their hard work managed to make the game a lot better, improving balance, the AI, and quite a few things.
OBVIOUS TROLL IS OBVIOUS

And what design template did they use to do these overhauls and graphic changes? The original designers that's who. They didn't start from scratch making the game they never have. They have always LEECHED off of others and in a way that is COPYRIGHT violation. They should take out any modding tools for all games and stop this leeching.
nevermind it was meant for the other TROLL above lol
THIS ONE ^^^ and YOU sure are pal, YOU sure are. I came talking about mods and you just came in here to attack. So, that makes YOU the troll. TROLL!!! lol
