How dumb do you feel when the AI kicks yer......

I must admit the AI in CMBB seems much better.....Even with 7 T-34s the AI thrashed me with only 3 Tigers and supporting panzergrenadiers......A question..If CMBB uses the same engine as CMBO...how is the AI improved? A progammer would do well to answer this...thanks...

I cannot answer that from a programmer's standpoint.

But I share the impression that the CMBB AI is a lot better. There seem to be some pretty simple fixes to move tanks where infantry already was and not to charge with artillery spotters first.

In addition, many of the combat mechanic repairs fix things that hurt the AI more than a human player. The inpredictable penetration/knockout model is better for the AI than instant death since the human player will usually get the first shot off. And a tank with two working MGs is freaking dangerous.
