The AI in Heroes V isn't very good. On large maps and during long games, the game lags when the AI takes its turn. It's simply not optimized.
Regarding its behavior: it's most enjoyable to play against on the first two difficulty levels. On the last two levels, it's very difficult to win against it! I develop strategically, slowly, and then suddenly, the enemy hero has creatures of level 7, and there are almost ten of them, or even more! When I barely manage to capture an enemy town, I see ALL the buildings that have been constructed. In the Thieves' Guild, the AI consistently has stats of 20-20-10-10-10-10-20000 and 30-30-15-15-15-15-30000 every day. It's just some kind of cheating. Nival Interactive didn't manage to properly refine the AI, unlike 3DO did with Heroes III…
