Paratroopers and Railroads
Why does the AI drop paratroopers on it's own territory that is completely railroaded.

The AI is stupid, it plays with the Airdrop ability. Once I saw the AI paratroop one square from their territory into my territory. The wierd thing was we wern't at war. They mooved their troops.

The AI was probably using a show of force.

The AI does use paratroopers effectively (extremely rarely) in some cases.
A long time ago in a PTW game, I had a remote small island made of a grassland and a hill square (with Iron on it). Anyway, Persia declared war during their turn and landed a crap load of paratroopers on the hill. I was completely surprised and unprepared and they took the city/island with little effort. And the island was so far away it took me until the end of the game to get it back. The most succesful AI military operation I ever saw.

AI doesn't seem to like to "Waste" movements. It gets really bad when they try to "use up" all of thier movements on a small (3-4 square) island that is railroaded. That can last up to 5 mins.
Also, they usually end on the same square they started on. |
