Chivalrous AI

NOTE: This submod is to be played on VH campaign difficulty. Battle difficulty can be adjusted as you desire.

Rome Remastered AI is well known to be extremely biased against the player. On very hard difficulty even your allies will soon declare a war on you if they find an undefended settlement. This breaks immersion for a mod like Chivalry, which is set in Medieval period. This was a time of alliances and religious struggles.

This mod fixes above issue. It contains an AI script that removes AI bias against the player even on very hard difficulty.

The features of this mod are as following

AI changes:
1. For neutral faction, AI will not attack player as soon as it borders it. It will take into account the player's relations with other factions such as if player is at war with the faction that is AI's ally then AI is more likely to attack
2. AI will not attack its player ally so it will never (or very rarely) betray the player.

Campaign balancing changes:
1. Religious penalty to public order is reduced.
2. Cavalry is nerfed. They are still stronger than infantry but to a less degree
3. All unit cost is reduced by half.
4. Unit recruitment times are reduced.
5. In standard (medium) unit size all spear units have 60 men, all missile and melee infantry units have 40 men, all cavalry units has 20 men and general's bodyguard has 10 men

Above changes with are done to ensure that the AI is chivalrous diplomatically but is strong and aggressive when fighting against.

NOTE: With this submod your settlements will always have taxes automanaged. Even if you set the taxes yourself it will be overridden in the next turn. Unfortunately, there is no way to solve it with current modding capabolities that game provides. To compensate for this you will get extra income and population growth from your settlements.
