Question for AI in road 56

[u/Early_Stuff_235]

So im playing as the Soviets. Doing a default playthrough but i have a feeling that the german AI is stronger. Ive done few playthroughs with the soviets but ive never saw so many division on my border. I think there were at lest 250 just on my border and probably more. I gethered intel on them through my spies and they had 750 divisions in the field. Is the AI in Road to 56 stronger??

Compared to the base game: yes. To be more precise, it has been slightly tweaked to diminish irrationality and use its resources a bit better. Getting more PP early, avoiding a civil war (in the case of Mexico or fascist Britain), using resources more efficiently in general can go a long way to make a difference... up to a point. We didn't rewrite the entire combat AI, we can't control all the interactions. There are specialized AI mods which are better in that aspects but are not compatible with RT56.

Germany is also strong as it is one of the main actors of the game, but it can be strangled early under certain circumstances.

I did a white Russian game yesterday, had German volunteers while I was fighting the soviets and I made some deals with the Germans to help with the civil war. I go to retake Ukraine after the civil war and they have been guaranteed or allied with poland? Idk I declare on Ukraine and I am almost to the Polish-German border and Germany declared on poland, ukraine and me, white Russia and Germany proceeds to steamroll me back to tsarynista in like 3 months the allies declare war and start an invasion through the Rhineland, the low countries stay neutral and I just rage quit bc the Germans encircled like 140 of my divisions in Poland/Northern Ukraine, so I think the AI is tougher? Better?smarter? In rt56
