I just played a defend mission against an enemy river crossing, and man.... what a joke. I know the AI is very limited in this game, such as continually sending their tanks in a line to my engineers hiding in a forest, but this beats them all. Tens of Russian infantry trying to cross the river in their little rafts, while my infantry units wiped them out so easily, racking 2 kills for each infantry killed (somehow the raft counts as an additional kill).

Only if there was someway to improve the AI so that it wouldn't make half of the mistakes that it does now. The game would be then twice as much more enjoyable than now.

Also, for some reason the AI doesn't use offboard smoke artillery anymore to shield their attacking units in the first turn? I remember this making the AI more challenging in the original Steel Panthers.

Ya. I once had a river crossing where everything wen wrong. I lost most everything getting across then the rest were wiped out by his tanks. Mine were unable to cross the bridge.

The AI has some streangs and some weaknesess

Same thing, I played as Germans wiping out British. I gave up (surrendered) after over 10,000 British soldiers died. For some reason the Brits did not bring their armor up to suppress my defenses, even thoguh they had some, and their artillery tended to hit my rear areas, which did nothing but make me move a reserve calvary squadron around to get away from it.
