@Cernel @Schulz Do you have a save game or screenshot?

@Captain-Crunch Both updates are a bit more than just tweaking a value:

• Improve Defend Territory Check - Sometimes the AI would add some units to try to defend a territory and when checking the result vs the result of not adding the units, it would decide not to defend it. Now the AI as long as it projects the defense to have a positive average TUV trade will add the units to defend it.
• Improve Capital Defense Check - The AI makes a land superiority check (allied vs enemy units within a certain range of its capital) and was only considering units that had already been moved and ignoring units that could still move causing it to often abort defenses. This now makes it consider the max units it could move to nearby territories and then remove units that have moved away from it for other defenses already.

Both of these improvements impact all maps including Classic though I'd say they probably have a bigger impact on larger maps like Great War. In particular, if you saw cases that the AI didn't move its units forward in noncombat move were it could defend, these 2 changes should hopefully fix those cases.

@Cernel Correct. The AI doesn't currently support that because there are very few or no maps with those features.

@LaFayette Ok. That's a relief as if the AI doesn't attack in that situation, I was pretty worried that there was a major issue.

@Alexei-Svitkine I also reviewed the AI not moving away from its capital area and there was an issue in capital land superiority checks causing it to abort moving units away from its capital. PR to improve that: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/pull/5562

This potentially will make a major improvement in the German AI on Great War.

@LaFayette That definitely looks bad and I imagine the UK should have captured Germany probably 10 turns ago. I'll try to take a look tomorrow.
