Maybe 3.5 times for an AI assault should be given. Nowadays and every time, they get so slaughtered, even as it�s now a educated AI from the SP2. Or maybe I�m improving my skills too.. hmm.

However 2.5 times for a assault seems a bit low.

It's just fine. If we changed it for you imagine the howls from all the people who already think the AI gets too many units. If you think it's too easy then give the AI better preferences numbers

SPWAW had the assault rate at 3X.

That's nice. It's a different game. WinSPww2 and WinSPMBT get 2.5X becasue we found 3X was too much

I guess it just depends on different players, but I found most of the time that even 3X wasn't enough. I was rather thinking this SP version would be trumping SPWAW in that department, but I guess not. It does make for terribly easy defense compared to a delay mission though. As if it matters, I think SPWAW also had delays at 2X.

We already have some players complaining the AI gets too many units so yes, I guess it does depend the player whether they will be satisfied with the units and points alloted or not

Which is why the next EXE will have the optional AI ratio modifier INI variable for campaigns.

It will allow the AI to get a boost (or reduction) in its buy points at your choice.
