Default Re: Any AI mods to make it more challenging?

PDF made a mod increasing the cost of poor units *quite* a lot (999 resources actually), to prevent the AI from building some of the weakest troops. The thread in question is available here .

There are also special maps that may fit the bill; for example, Orania Nasty Edition or Gandalf's random maps (Poke in the Eye and Random Opponents). Or perhaps even thrown in a few alliances between the AIs for added fun. Or all of the above.
Alneyan,
Thanks for the ad BTW did you test it and what do you think ?
AS it is this mod makes the weakest units unbuildable, so it's not perfect but I didn't see this as a real problem when playing... As long as AI build algorithm cannot be changed I don't see any other elegant way to fix the problem.
Reading NTJedi's post gave me an idea however for the mod : adding a "supply bonus" to basic commanders. Mod will have to be broken down by nation to *not* give the bonus to player(s), but I think it'll fit the bill about starving.
