0, 7 and 14 are the key V-hexes hexes for the 7-hex clusters.

the "shotgun" V-hexes are best left for human-human games, though the AI will do OK with them, it is best when defending with the traditional 3 clusters, for its layout.

Cheers

Interesting, didn't know that these three are "critical". Good to know that, explains some oddities in my scenario...

Why would it affect your scenario - as you deploy the AI troops in the defence then?.

Navigation when advancing will generally be to the nearest V-hex.

It does not affect how the AI defends. It only affects how it DEPLOYS IF you allow the AI to deploy automatically and I doubt you did that

Actually I'm trying the auto deploy each time in order to get some "other opinion" on good deployment spots so I was a bit surprised sometimes that the AI ignores high-value hexes and concentrates on some low-values... As I didn't know this.

OK that explains it but I want to emphasise that it's only deployment that this happens. When attacking the AI isn't drawn to those three V-hexes above the others
