Hi,

I'm planning on programming a simple(ish) strategy game, something
like Empire. Otherwise I can handle doing such a game, but I have
hardly no idea whatsoever concerning the computer AI.

I wouldn't like to start from scratch and come up with something that
a 7-year old kid could beat eyes closed. Are there any good books or
articles on the subject? Does anyone have any ideas concerning this
subject?

(btw: Is there a FAQ? How often is it posted? I just subscribed to
this group, and looked at the articles, but the FAQ may have expired)
