Normally you can double or triple your agent limit this way and have more agents than you have money or missions for them to do. Build max agents you can and try to increase agent skills that convert enemy agents. So my early techs are usually prioritizing spies and dignitaries along with military. If I lost an agent to old age or death the AI will often send an invisible spy to constantly poison my army so it can't move and over 3 turns loses 50% and then an AI army arrives and finishes it off. on legendary AI gets some pretty strong agent bonuses and will use them. only to find AI has rebuilt their entire lost armies in that time and with better units than before! Also I regularly find myself defeating 1-2 enemy stacks in a battle with my single stack but then having to heal for 2-3 turns before strong enough to capture their city.

By mid-late campaign when generally your armies are much better than AI (even though AI has improved army composition) the game becomes easier but the first 30 turns can be a challenge as often AI will be invading your lands with 2 stacks when you only have half stack to defend and your single good stack is trying to invade some region on opposite side. Battles are noticeably more difficult and more frequent in the early campaign because of the AI morale and income bonuses. Some factions are just much easier than others or certain play thrus are easier though that also happened sometimes in Shogun 2 the map/faction design seemed to make it less likely.īasically it will feel like the AI cheats on Legendary sometimes and you have to exploit some AI flaws to succeed. To me the challenge on legendary is just recently after nearly 20 patches finally on par with Shogun 2 for most factions now. Sure try legendary- worst is you have to restart or lose a campaign.
