I agree, I also think that the latest Patch has improved the AI deployment of the troops.
I'm in the middle of an very good battle at the moment, and while bringing the troops together to oppose the advancing enemy troops, I had a brigade-size gap in the line, temporarily.
The AI paused and then started to set up with the intention of moving a brigade forward into this open space. My brigade just made it in the nick of time, which seemed to cause the AI to rethink their movements. Now, I'm pretty sure that it's going to try a flanking-maneuver to dislodge my men.
Excellent Job - To all of those involved with this!
As-far as the AI units setting up on a fence to receive the defensive-bonus, well, I have never known them to do that, and I doubt that that is programmed into the game.
I have always countered this by giving the entire battlefield a defensive bonus, this keeps the enemy troops and my troops equal, in-so-far- as fighting ability.
Now, the advantage goes to whom ever is standing on the higher ground!
