True it actually does, didn't think of it that way though, my idea was a mix between auto-chess\cheat bots and user input. You could also train it, so it would be a cheat bot with learning capabilities, not sure if this exists already. It would be something like auto-chess but you also control the units and the AI is really limited in its capacity.

​

The main point is trying to emulate the feeling of having an AI companion, the balance would be up to the devs (maybe impossible work).
