Default Re: Padmassa, the Black Coven - Alpha

Has anyone tried this as an AI?
Does the randomness of the mad priests offset AI logic (one-minded stupidity) by making it at least a chance of doing a smart thing once in a while? That might be worth expanding on?

I played a couple of games with it as AI against some other people's nations.

It did better than most, but I don't recall what it was doing with the priests. As I recall, the odds of a crazy priest doing anything remotely useful (let alone cool, like becoming a bonus prophet) are quite low.
