The AI took the v hexes but kept moving to the right side of the map instead of holding the v hexes.

The AI has no concept of holding V-hexes. So if it has taken all of them it simply advances onwards and tries to kill any remaining troops it finds (e.g. your artillery park).

I thought you meant they didn't go for the V hexes. As Andy says after the V hexes are taken then the AI goes looking for enemy units to increase their points

SP III did have some code to protect the V-hex cluster. It basically marched nearby infantry to the taken V-hexes, while vehicles still stormed ever-onwards.

That meant that if you let the AI take the clusters and waited a couple of turns before plastering them with artillery that you would have a field day killing the AI's grunts...

It did that in SPWAW too. But we don't worry about that here.
