Default Re: AI \"personalities?\"

Ok, bringing back a stale thread with a new question... Will the AI personalities ever change during a game?

That could add a lot of surprise. Suppose there were some BIG trigger events for nations, like losing the home fort, or death of the pretender, or loss of >20% of armies in 1 turn, or even breaking an alliance, ... and this would cause a chance of switching the AI at random to another personality. So you are really attacking one AI hard, and smash a large army, then it might change from a Defensive to Offensive posture and send all it's home guard after you. It would have to be unpredictable or it could be exploited.

This could even work with AI alliances. The same kind of big events could trigger the AIs to possibly ally with each other. As you begin to try and crush the smaller AI nations it becomes more likely that they will become allied against you, unless you can finish them quickly.
