The AI does extensive thinking, and any more would cause more complaints than now.

If you want to see the AI going thru the process then just turn on debug with a -dd switch to your game, and view the logs. Come up with some suggestions on how you would change what you see so that we can discuss it. The offer has been out there since before Dom3 was released but very few have actually bothered to look at it.

And if you want to check out how the computer player does vanilla scripting, or purchases troops, then use the (more recently released) --comptrn switch to be able to view turn files for AI players.
