Axis and Allies was meant to be played by MEN, not MACHINES!
An AI intelligent enough, could become Artificial. I mean, if it knows when to rock out a good gamble, that could be dangerous! :P
For the record, I don’t “look” ahead in most of my games, other than for the obvious - “Oh they are going to take a shot at the capital” kind of stuff. If the AI just did what it had to do to get it’s NO’s, and focus on the economics, it would be deadly enough.
