AI castle layout
Don't get me wrong, I love the new Stronghold Crusader 2, but seriously, Firefly, what happened to the awesome and big AI castle layouts (especially Wolf and Saladin)? The AI is only building tiny castles now, even if they have loads of free territory space. They aren't a big challenge anymore. Most of them are even very similar!

Come on, you can do this better! I wouldn't be mad, if you could at least copy the old ones from the original, because they were good and more fun to siege. Some rework would be appropriate.

I fully agree, i was versing an AI in skirmish on Crusader Tactics map and he just built a catle that could fit only about 3 buildings (including the keep!)

It's strange they were so proud of the AI. I guess the game needs a couple of pathes to stabilize, anyway is pretty good and I haven't experience any bug yet

The AI isn't bad, i lose quite a bit, but i am kinda dissapointed with the AI CASTLES. It is just kinda dumb where i build these giant walls with catapults and stuff, and i use them for like, 1 wall and then the keep. Also do the battles get bigger later on? From what i have experienced after playing a game for about 30 minutes (and then losing) they only sent about 30 dudes. Do they ever get like, full scale sieges?

The castles are more like small outposts now. Almost every building the a.i builds is placed OUTSIDE the walls... in their preview videos before release they showed off what looked like big strong A.I castles, they even talked about some of them. Yet what we have seems very different from what was shown.

Also, where is my strongwall option?

Simples, because the estates are tiny and it's easier to make an AI build a tiny castle that will fit all maps than to make an AI that will adapt it's castles to the available space.

Also do the battles get bigger later on?
As far as I can tell the unit limit is <150 in skirmish, which is a massive improvement from Stronghold Crusader's 10000... hang on...
