Description: Support AI and Games and help the show grow by joining my Patreon: patreon.com/ai_and_games -- Halo Wars 2 introduced a new enemy to the Halo universe: Atriox and his band of mercenaries known as 'The Banished'. From the very beginning, it was intended that Atriox and his commanders feel like a true threat: with distinct personalities and human-like strategic intelligence. In this episode we're going to look at the underlying systems and how these AI commanders are designed to operate in different game modes and difficulty levels. Meaning they can beat human players without resorting to cheating.
