I never implied that map file scripting would solve all the AI's shortcomings. But it's available as we discuss, easy enough to do with minimal practice, and it can give the AI enough of a boost to become challenging to the best players. Obviously it won't change the AI's behavior - eg, its tendancy to build peltasts when it has the resources to build hoplites, or to build other castles than the ones you gave him in the map file.
