Beginner AI?

Hopefully the King will be back.

I never left!

Wrong kind of King... ¬¬

there used to be a "random enemies" functionality built into the engine which just send increasingly difficult waves of enemies at your start position which was good fun (even if practically unwinnable... you had to ensure that all enemies on the screen were dead at the same time which was difficult with the spawn point constantly pumping them out.)

Hey that sounds fantastic!
I'm assuming it no longer exists, but might you know waht was the last build it was in?

AAI is probably the easiest AI out there for a beginner. It is true that playing against an AI will teach you bad tactics. For example, AIs are susceptible to strategies that will not work against human players. Try walling off areas with dragons teeth, or massing air.
