How smart (or dumb) is the AI crew?
This doesn’t depend on the difficulty level, fortunately. The higher you select your difficulty level, the quicker the enemy will react. High difficulty doesn’t make your crew members dumb, but (just) slower than average. Steel Beasts was designed to free you from micromanagement. You won’t see your tanks exposing their weak flanks to the enemy when backing up. Also the gunner’s quality reflects your own gunnery skills. If you perform well on a tank range, all of your gunners will be cloned from your results. To sum it up, we’d judge computer controlled tanks at about well trained recruit level. An all-human crew would still beat them in overall performance, but we don’t expect you screaming in frustration because a stupid action of the computer ruined your mission.
