[DRG]

If you have time ( and who doesn't ATM......) try an experiment.

Save after every turn and if you get a situation like you describe go back and restart the turn and play it out. Try that a couple of times and keep that original save then shut down the game and play that turn again.... then reboot your computer and play that turn again and I think you will see that things do not happen the same way twice.

I know it can be frustrating and at least once a year someone brings it up and it's always a variation on " the AI can hit a hummingbird but I can't hit the broad side of a barn"....... and I have been there too where it seems like the AI is superman but IT IS AS ANDY SAID........ the AI gets no to-hit bonus and it's the random number generator that has kept this game going long after games with more predictable results have faded away.
