Well, I'm through with the game

It has such great potential, but there is no point in continuing to play SP.

The fact that the AI picks its scales and dominion randomly is absolutely absurd and makes the SP completely unplayable in my opinion. I didn't know enough about the game in my first half dozen or so starts to realize the damage this was causing behind the scenes, but I've seen it firsthand as I started paying attention. Massive death domain wiping out Arco armies; huge armies of AI chaff units being killed by a lack of supplies; etc.

Why the developers can't code something simple to prevent the AI from taking a 3 scaled death when they aren't Ermor or Ryleh is beyond me, but since I can't fix it (RanDom simply will not work for me and I'm not going to fight with it anymore), I just don't see any point to playing.

If 3.16 or beyond fixes this, I'll try to come back, but I don't think that's going to happen since the AI hasn't received any significant improvements in a long time.
