I would have to agree with the above posts. The AI is for learning the game then go to real players for second game onwards as the AI is a waste of time and easily baited.

Gents:  

I would never use the AI to learn the TOC series!  

 
Well I am not a reactionary personality and I do not see the problem with a new player playing the AI to learn how to use travel mode versus non travel mode for example, or how to lay a minefield with an engineer, or how to bombard a unit with artillery. I really think your reaction is over the top but I am sure others may agree with you. As for the best way to play the game is with a real person we both agree on that !
Peace

Hey Cooper:

I've seen too many new players believe that once they beat the AI, they can effectively take on and be successful against human opponents. 

It don't work that way! 

I think we are pretty much in agreement... so let's leave it at that?
