MaraJade - AI Total Defense Strategy

Attacking: The AI does not always choose the best attacks. It needs to take into account the health of the unit being attacked, the units around it, the health of the attacking unit, and what would be the best method to attack with.

Introduce retreating: The AI does not retreat. There are situations where it needs to be able to, such as when it's castle is under attack, or when it's outnumbered.

Grouping: The AI has a tendency of having its troops to spread out, making them more vulnerable. When there are no good attacks, units should group together to present a better defense.

Prediction: The AI needs to be able to calculate what the player can do, and respond appropriately. This will also help with defense.
See MaraJade for more information.

Nephro - AI project SoC2013

A project to improve the existing AI developer toolset and implement a concurrent block for AI developers to be able to exploit the vast amounts of CPU time wasted during turns of other players.

PJ - Proposal

AI Recruitment Algorithms

The current recruitment system is too weak for the AI to properly recruit units. AI is prone to not recruiting the best units for terrain and is also weak against counter recruitment. This problems can be fixed through a code overhaul in both the C++ section of recruitment and the Lua sections.
