You mean give the AI cost reduction sites so the player can go take their capitals and use them more effectively than the AI ever will?

That would probably be for single player games and if the human player is so lacking in self-control that he can't refrain from using the AI sites once he gains that capital, he has nobody to blame but himself for ruining the challenge.

For MP games such cost reduction sites would probably be game-breaking, since anyone starting next to such an AI would have a huge advantage if they focused on the AI.

Well if you want to make a mod that helps the AI. Give them immobile units that generate troops and gems each turn and die if they get in combat. (So you cannot steal them).

Sites is not the way to go.
