Skip to the previous post in this topic.

That'll be a hell of a challenge to make right. The AI is going to have to be just outright incredible to pull off the game, because 90% of it is negotiating with the other players.

Diplomacy is okay, but Machiavelli is much better, IMO. Backstabbing in Diplomacy often leads to a simple bounce. Big whoop. Backstapping in Machiavelli often leads to death and destruction. Yay!

They shouldn't have wasted time having AI in it. Make it a pure online multiplayer game.
