This AI is a Offense and Defense AI. It was able to defeat the hardest AI. Be sure open README.txt for the game settings. NOTE: This AI will not work properly if you did not set the game settings correctly.
All this script builds is a castle, 2 stables, a rax and some random towers and it trains paladins and halbs. But this wasn't even enough to beat the standard computer with the huns in a pidm.
Probably I spent more effort into finding this out than the author did while scripting it. Seriously don't download it.

Disagreed it was able to beat the hardest difficulty. For me any way. But it is very slow some thing I need to fix.

I made two tests with it an came to the same conclusion as zergs. The AI usually is a little stronger than the standard AI due to its use of paladins, but once it runs out of gold it's toast. The hardest AI won both times.

This is version 2?
When I read that it had defeated the hardest AI, my mind instantly went to The Horde, Eagles Revenge 7, Lade, and so on.
The Standard AI on Hardest difficulty? Come on, seriously? It didn't even do that.

well, basically its main (or only) strategy is to build two stables, a barracks, a castle, and several towers spread around its base.
it then spams paladins and halberdiers and charges headlong into the opponent's town until it runs out of gold (it doesn't use a market to gain more nor does it expand). while intimidating it's almost laughable to watch them all pile up dead at the foot of a castle not to mention it doesn't know how register that a wall is in the way. which the Standard AI uses all the time.
out of four rounds it only beat the standard AI once, mainly because it sent a villager through its gates at a bad time allowing a significant portion of Ceasar's forces through before it had sufficient defenses.
my verdict, its base is mediocre, its strategy is a little dumb really. don't download.

Most of the 314 people who downloaded probably did this because they've read "beat the hardest AI".
But this AI couldn't ever dream of beating The Horde. What you mean is the hardest difficulty of the standard AI and even my grandma could script an AI which beats the standard one.
Some staff member may want to clear the description up. But even if not, maybe some people read my post and are now aware of this.
