Few situations i've come across in my crusade against the japanese.
1) A veteran samurai with 2 health successfully defends against, and destroys a 3 elite cossack army that started with 12 units of health. The samurai was in a hill fortress and the army was attacking from a plain.
2) A veteran samurai with 2 units of health defends against and destroys two full health veteran marines in a row. They were both in hill terrain.
3) A veteran calvary unit successfully defends against a veteran TANK. calvary unit was in a city and tank was attacking from plain.
So I thought that maybe the computer was just using bull**** to defend itself against me. Then the japanese launched their offensive.
1) Calvary unit routs a dug in infantry unit from a city. The calvary unit was attacking from a plain.
2) Veteran samurai destroys a fortified veteran rifleman in a fort on a mountain. The samurai was attacking from a plain.
3) Samurai defeats a veteran infantry unit, both on a plain.
For a game that they tried to make historically accurate, you would think that units with MACHINE GUNS would annhilihate dudes with swords. And you'd think that TANKS would kick the hell out of horses. It's pretty annoying to have to use overwhelming technologically advanced forces to defeat the computers archaic units.
Hey Sid Meier, here's a clue. Machine guns > swords. Tanks > horses.
