I agree...
The way to make a better easy AI is to make it _less_ agressive...
The best world for a newbie would be one where the AI leaves You
pretty much alone...
The easiest AI should not be for bad players but for players
who want to check the game out for the first time...
This would be a "training" AI of sorts...
To make warfare very limited in such an AI would not be a bad thing...
When You feel up to it You can get Your wars with a harder AI...
