1 AOE2 AIs were cool but even the best were much less sophisticated than our sweet ZK AIs - they were just scripts. They focused on achieving perfect macro and build timings (both of which are relatively simple for AI) since unit control, map parsing and lots of other functions were hardcoded. 1 AOE2 AIs were cool but even the best were much less sophisticated than our sweet ZK AIs - they were just scripts.

5 ZK has the 2nd most challenging and sophisticated non-cheating AI opponents in the entire RTS genre. In terms of usability they also thrash the starcraft BW AIs, which are prohibitively difficult to set up for anything besides a 1v1 vs player (requires multiple copies of Starcraft 1 be run in a virutal lan). 5 ZK has the 2nd most challenging and sophisticated non-cheating AI opponents in the entire RTS genre.
