Every game I play they suck. They never expand past their 1st town. I've never seen them with a rating higher than 14. Is this just me or in other peoples games does Tarth rule (or at least do better). If not it must be something with the AI with them.
I have noticed a trend towards Tarth failing at life. I have had a few games where they did alright though. Generally it's Altar, Umber, and Magnar that dominate (for an AI, still miles below me even on ridiculous). Yithril, Pariden, Gilden, and Capitar tend to be the 'mid-level' AIs and Tarth and Resoln are bottom of the barrel if/when they live long enough to get into the barrel. Kraxis tends to be a 'wild card', I've had games where Kraxis was among the top AIs and others where he was the biggest joke of all. But again I've had games that are exceptions to this 'rule'.
They are currently the last faction I am fighting. 31 cities & a 1000+ power rating---difficulty hard.
They're usually one of the better AI (if one can say that in this game), they usually have one of the highest rating and are usually around to end game. In my experience the weak AIs are the kingdom factions, they always get wiped easily early in the game, It's always a kindgom faction that is the "1-town wonder". Empire factions are always around to mid + endgame & tarth. I always play Altar because I like their at start bonusus.
I always play as Tarth. For all teh other race's bonuses and shortcomings, making female warriors is too much to pass up for me.
Also, Altar gets eaten quick, for some reason in my games. Las game it was early... like 20-50 turns in. Bad memory.
