It should be made so you can actually battle the computer and you can choose to add computer players into campaigns so if no one else wants to be in a particular campaign or you want to start the campaign sooner and do not want to have to wait you can add computer players.

hmmm it good be a good idea.... but i don't think it can be made, and even if req could make this it would take him at least 400 hours to make the programm.... and then you come to the point: how strong should this computer players be? and should they be able to take over castles? how many mistakes do they make? how r they moving? at the maximum? and you would have another problem: the computer is NEVER inactive..... it wouldn't miss one turn .

You have made some good points!

The way this thing would work is you would choose a lenel for the computer to be on, and the com[puters would no be allowed to win they would be able to gain experience but they would not be in the rankings and if you defeat/takeover a computer then and only then any stuff the computer had would be givven to you. the computers would also have so many turns they never use (like when a real WOL player misses a turn because of time differences.) the missed/notused turns would be completly random. The higher the level the more turns the computer dose nut miss,,,, and so on. the computer players would be like normal WOL pkaters in the sense that they would use the same characters and movement and all that other stuf like normal players.

I doubt it will become a reality, but for the simple reason of that it will take a major computer to calculate this, and that will mean more server space rented out, ect.

when you can't be beaten by the computer i would always face the computer and not a human enemy cause attacking a computer would be without any risk of losing my castle....

and when does the computer do what upgrade?

i think it's way to hard to make a programm that will let us fight against computers


instead of this. vote on www.mpogd.com everyday so we will get more members and the games will be filled up much sooner

right hanky
and even best "AI" when you play against it 30 - 40 times is predictible, so its better to have more human players.

Waronline would suck as a single player game...

If I want a single player war game, there's dozens of good ones for the PC that are faaaaaaaaaaaaaar superior to waronline. What makes waronline fun is the human presence :-P
