Supply Settings

300

It's much more interesting when supplies are at normal or less)

I like them set at 50, usually, unless I want an easier time with Niefelheim etc.

Yes but Ive heard that the AI does not handle supply so Im trying to give the AI all the help it can get.

I thought it was 300 but I tried 50 and I saw several provinces with supply of 1000 or more. Are the supply settings screwed up? Ive never seen provinces with supply this high when the settings were set to 300...

Supply at 150 and using Better Independents mod has given me good results, the AI does not starve too easily. Unless it has death scale.

With AI opponents I recommend 275 or 300... during middle and late game the computer opponents with healthy scales almost always take the lead over the computer opponents with poor scales. As time progresses it will be marching armies of 400 then 500 then 800... it needs high supplies to match the growing force.

I wanted to also add that it's easy to create an insanely powerful AI opponent.

First:
Use the map edit commands to give Niefelheim or Argatha(early_age) healthy scales. Order 2 or 3, Luck 2 or 3 and Growth 2 or 3 seem to work best when used all at the same time.

Second:
Test the map with all human players to verify the scales appeared as you planned. One or two turns should work.

Third:
Setup one or more of these computer opponents as Impossible, set independents for 5 or 6... and watch them dominate the map.



P.S. ~ If your looking for a computer opponent with strong research use Tien Chi as a computer opponent and follow the steps above.
