I recently reinstalled the game and updated to the latest 1.03 patch. I started a new campaign game as Prussia v. AI. However, I see that the AI is now very aggressive. Browne invaded Saxony in fall 56, retreated in winter. Early april, my Army is concentrated in Dresden ready to begin the offensive when Charles of Lorraine leads the main Austrian Army over the still snowy mountain passes and camps down in Pirna.
Is this normal? could it be my settings? I give the AI a +1 activation and detection bonus which worked well in 1.02.
