skirmish ai difficulty?

[Arkada64]

does the higher difficulty's change anything besides what cheats the ai uses?

The AI doesn't use cheats.

AI soldiers always have less health than your soldiers. Even when fighting against a Heroic AI. The rest of the stats for soldiers like stamina weapon accuracy etc are the same for AI soldiers as they are for your soldiers.

On Hard the AI has less health than heroic and all other stats like stamina and accuracy are reduced.

Normal has lower stats again and maybe some health buffs to your soldiers.

Easy has a massive set of buffs to your soldiers and large reductions in all stats on the enemy.

Harder difficulty AI bot get faster payback rates, higher CP and DP amounts. On Hard and heroic they get "more" than you do. i believe easy and normal get the same as a player.

None of the settings makes the AI behave "smarter".

And if you are playing campaign skirmish , harder difficulty change what reinforcement the A.I will have , generally heavier vehicles .
