until AI is improved, I don't think this is a worth while implementation.

And even then, my understanding of the bops is to allow people to get accustomed to the maps. This can be done just as easily in 1v1 as it can 1v1v1.

I would pretty much echo this. In addition, currently these games don't count for any points. That would have to change if a bot were playing with 2 people, right?

Helix, are you thinking 1 person and 2 bots or 2 people and 1 bot? Which kind of 3 way are you looking for?

I completely agree with this idea, more bots in games is good though I don't think humans should be mixed into this. I would also like bot win stats to be separate from regular human stats, I understand we don't get points but i would prefer if they didn't boost my percentage for no reason.
Also I was curious how you were programming these bots of different levels, maps? Which place in the forums does this happen?

Maybe we could have a game mode where the humans play the neutrals on the map. They can neither win nor lose, and only the bots are allowed to play. The humans just have to log in and watch.

Or maybe we could try a new game mode where no moves are made at all. You just log in, the computer sets up your troops, and you press "Begin Turn" repeatedly, but nothing ever happens! In order to play this game mode you would have to download a special module for your webcam that would keep an eye on you and make sure you didn't fall asleep. Once you fall asleep or leave your computer, you are eliminated from the game.

Chrissakes, people! Zombie Spoils and No Forts isn't boring enough for you?
