the North AI Problem

[makif130289]

Does anyone experience very dumb AI behaviour from the North ? The North AI especially tends not to mover against the Flint's Finger and its surrounding counties. When lord of Flint's Finger revolts, he generally wins because he manages to hold control of his holdings for a very long time. Another thing is that i frequently see Northern troops sitting on Winterfell when the North entered a war.

The AI has serious trouble dealing with how remote the North is from most other places. This was particularly bad in early beta versions, when it would try to launch amphibious invasions using ships it didn't actually have. Taking away its ships made it behave intelligently at least in Robert's Rebellion, but there's only so much we can do.

Yeah the North is really dumb, not much that can be done.

I think the actual problem is distance between neighbouring provinces. Distance is somehow too much for AI in the North and it doesn't only affect the North but anyone fighting in the North.
