You and Claude have been busy! 🤯
So much info to absorb.
So tempting to customise just for one map and very hard to keep it generic like the TripleA AIs.
The list of tried and tested tactics is awesome.
Having a list like that allows the Claude AI to 'try' the neutral tactics and for it to learn if they work on its new current map.
For me a standout is
Keeping tanks inside the main stack instead of one step behind: detrimental (a nice confirmation of the owner’s principle).
On maps like 1941GCD, this is a valid Russian tactic. But for Germany , I cannot afford not to keep the German tanks out of the Attack stack. I guess its map dependant?
Its fab to see the win ratio has increased, well done!
To clarify, it only keeps the tanks outside the main stack when safe (at least that's the intended behaviour), it may still mess up. That's trickier in the mid and late game as Germany on a normal map, because the rear tank stack has to contend with air plus naval units coming in. I still play like that in some positions though, a stack of tanks and new infantry in Baltics connecting Germany to Karelia, the Baltic tanks defend both landings in France and put pressure on Arch, Finland and West Russia. Of course once the Allies have enough Units in Finland, this becomes unenable.
