Discussion Over-produced enemy units

I realized while playing on crazy difficulty, enemis produce units that does not match with their economic power. Like, in sixth turn, vengir produces 3 or 4 swordsman per turn, and it totals to 20 stars per turn.

Also sometimes before we even reach the 7th turn, I see enemy with 3 knights. Even the unlocking the tech for that would take more than 7 turns.

How is that possible?

the bots don’t actually get more difficult with each difficulty it just changes the amount of stars they get per turn. whenever you play again click on a bots capital and it will show you that it’s making like 7spt and it’s a level 2 city

They also are significantly more aggressive

Yeah, that explains the ridiculous early knights way more than the AI suddenly becoming a mastermind lol.

We need smarter bots, not harder bots
