Best AI traits?

from Elemental Forums

Which AI traits do you think lead to the strongest overall faction right now?

 


Expansionist is definitely one and I would argue either Militaristic or perhaps Monster Hunter? What has your experience been with the Civilized trait?

 

I think that among the attack types, I've seen the best so far with Clubber among the different types.

It really depends on many factors, such as world size, number of opponents, specific opponents, how much mana there is, etc. You wouldn't find Expansionist too useful with a magic wielder who can access all spellbooks, and a bonus to summoning wouldn't help someone who's real benefit lies in churning cheap melee troops. Again, in a small world, magic users are at a disadvantage unless you ramp up mana, but in huge worlds, they can become pretty damn formidable.
