AI for MWIF - Ireland

Post by peskpesk »

Ireland setup AI

Ireland Forces
5-3 INF, RES 3-3 MIL

Ireland has one basic setup:

* Capital defence: Is just as the name suggests a setup where the Irish
land unit is setup to defend Dublin.

Ireland has two extreme setups:

* Invasion defence: the Irish land unit is setup to defend one or more of the Irish minor ports (Cork and Waterford) with at least ZOC to make it more difficult for the attacker to find a undefended port close to the capital.

* Marauder defence: Is just as the name suggests a setup where the one of the Irish unit is set up to raise mayhem before Ireland is beaten. The List of targets is: Belfast in Northern Ireland.

Declaration of war:
Given a Western allies declaration of war and GE/IT control of Ireland OR a GE/IT/JP declaration of war with and US/CW control of Ireland the suggested reasoning for the AI could be as below.

Threats to guard against:
* Threat of paradrop on/close to Dublin
* Threat of invasion on Dublin
* Threat of minor invasion close to Dublin
* Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland from Northern Ireland
* Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland by naval transport into Northern Ireland
* Threat of MAR Walk over from United Kingdom by Northern Ireland

Good hopes:
* Chance of intervention from controlling power
* Chance to try to capture Northern Ireland
* Chance to try to step on facedown allied unit(s)
* Chance to try to step on facedown axis unit(s)

Threat of paradrop on/close to Dublin

IF the Weather is Storm or Blizzard the no risk of paradrop

IF any of the countries at war has a:

Organized ATR AND
it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
the ATR has range to Dublin/within three hex from the capital or can be put in range of it by naval transport AND
there is a organized PARA AND
it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
the PARA has range to ATR or can be put in range of it AND
the PARA and the ATR belongs to countries that can cooperate AND
the chance of a successful paradrop is > 20 %

THEN

Threat of paradrop on/close to Dublin


Threat of invasion on Dublin

IF the Weather is not Fine or Rain then there is no risk of invasion

IF any of the countries at war has a:

Organized TRS/AMPH/SCS AND one of A or B

A)
it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
it has range to Bay of Biscay AND
there is a organized LandUnit AND
the LandUnit it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
the LandUnit and the transporting unit can cooperate AND
the transporting unit can transport the LandUnit AND
the LandUnit can invade from the transporting unit AND
the LandUnit is on a costal hex in Bay of Biscay OR stack with the transporting unit
the chance of a successful invasion is > 20 %


B)
It’s in the Bay of Biscay the AND
there is a organized LandUnit stack with the transporting unit AND
the LandUnit can invade from the transporting unit
the chance of a successful invasion is > 20 %

THEN

Threat of invasion on Dublin

Threat of minor invasion close to Dublin

IF the Weather is not Fine or Rain then there is no risk of invasion

IF any of the countries at war has a:

Organized TRS/AMPH/SCS AND one of A or B

A)
it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
it has range to Bay of Biscay AND
there is a organized LandUnit AND
the LandUnit it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
the LandUnit and the transporting unit can cooperate AND
the transporting unit can transport the LandUnit AND
the LandUnit can invade from the transporting unit AND
the LandUnit is on a costal hex in Bay of Biscay OR stack with the transporting unit
a maximum of two divisions or one corp can be invaded AND
the chance of a successful invasion is > 20 %


B)
It’s in the Bay of Biscay the AND
there is a organized LandUnit stack with the transporting unit AND
the LandUnit can invade from the transporting unit
a maximum of two divisions or one corp can be invaded AND
the chance of a successful invasion is > 20 %

THEN

Threat of minor invasion close to Dublin

Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland from Northern Ireland

IF any of the countries at war has
A organized LandUnit AND
it’s in Northern Ireland AND
it can reach Dublin in one impulses AND
it’s not blocked by ZOC.

THEN

Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland from Northern Ireland

Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland by naval transport into Northern Ireland

IF any of the countries at war has a:

Organized TRS/AMPH/SCS AND
it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
it has range to Derry or Belfast AND
there is a organized LandUnit stacked with the transporting unit AND
the LandUnit it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
the LandUnit and the transporting unit can cooperate AND
the transporting unit can transport the LandUnit AND
the transporting unit can enter Northern Ireland AND
the transported LandUnit can enter Northern Ireland AND
after the transport can the transported LandUnit reach Dublin in one impulses AND
it’s not blocked by ZOC.

THEN

Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland by naval transport into Northern Ireland

Threat of MAR Walk over from United Kingdom by Northern Ireland

IF any of the countries at war has

A organized MAR AND
it’s in United Kingdom AND
the MAR can enter Northern Ireland AND
It has range to Dublin AND
it’s not blocked by ZOC.

THEN

Threat of MAR Walk over from United Kingdom by Northern Ireland

Threat of having the land unit disrupted

IF the Weather is Storm or Blizzard there is no risk of having the land unit flipped

IF any of the countries at war has A or B

A)
A organized air unit AND
the unit has tactical factors AND
it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
it has range to the hex where the land unit is planed to be placed AND
the chance of a successful ground strike is > 30 %
B)
A organized ART unit AND
it’s in supply or can be put in supply AND
it has adjacent to the hex where the land unit is planed to be placed AND
the chance of a successful ground strike is > 30 %

THEN

There is risk of having the land unit disrupted


When a setup is used:

* The Capital defence
Is consider to be used when A, B, C, D, E or F OR when the AI wants

A) Threat of invasion on Dublin
B) Threat of paradrop on/close to Dublin
C) Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland from Northern Ireland
D) Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland by naval transport into Northern Ireland
E) Threat of MAR Walk over from United Kingdom by Northern Ireland
F) Threat of having the land unit disrupted

* Invasion defence:
Is consider to be used when A and none of B, C, D, E, F or G

A) Threat of invasion minor close to Dublin
B) Threat of invasion on Dublin
C) Threat of paradrop on/close to Dublin
D) Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland from Northern Ireland
E) Threat of enemy land units entering Ireland by naval transport into Northern Ireland
F) Threat of MAR Walk over from United Kingdom by Northern Ireland
G) Threat of having the land unit disrupted

* The Marauder defence
Is consider to be used when X and A, B, C and D

-- Belfast, Northern Ireland A
A) Northern Ireland is controlled by the US
B) There is no enemy landunit in Belfast
C) The Irish 5-3 INF can reach Belfast in one impulse
D) The US declared war on Ireland or the major power controlling Ireland is at war with US

X) The enemy can’t directly rail/move or transport a unit to the hex that the major power controlling Ireland want to reach and they can’t block the land move and the chance of a successful ground strike on the 5-3 INF is less than 30%
