Playing around with the intro screen last night, I noticed that:
- five AIs at fool (that is one level below normal, correct?) gave me an overall difficulty of "challenging" or such.
- five AIs at normal ave me a rating of "tolerable".
I would think tolerable is easier than challenging. While I can understand difficulty level going up as you make good/neutral races stupider, I would still think the overall difficulty should increase as you increase intelligence across the board.
Am I misreading the difficulty level?
