Yeah... in Heroes 3, is the AI actually smarter?
And also... why does the AI split the army into small groups and move them around in tiny chunks? Who even worked on the AI in this game? Seriously!

Guys, am I going crazy?
I'm starting a game as Sylvan. I take a Druid and an Archer. Difficulty is set to third. I go to kill neutral creatures. The army keeps accumulating in the town. After leveling them up to level 15, or even higher, I take the warriors from the castle (in the Portal, I always choose Manticores) and defeat the AI.
What's wrong with my tactics?
Why does the AI in Heroes 3 constantly find me and attack, while in Heroes 4 it just sits in its castle or wanders nearby? Why is there no dynamic gameplay, everything is so slow and boring??? I love Heroes 4, but I only play it to see if the AI can beat me even once...
I haven't played against other players yet, but I will soon.
