Civ 5 AI Only Battle: All Ancient Era Unique Ground Units Deathmatch

Very slow and epic free for all battle between Ancient Era unique units. All animations on. If someone interested in battles like this, I can do that for other eras too.
And I don't know why a Shoshone pathfinder just "leave" on 0:30 , maybe he could not find his path this time.

This is a perfect display of how bad the AI is as combat.

The ai gets its strength from having unfair bonuses. The higher you raise the difficulty the more ai can just bang out cities and units with no gold or unhappiness penalties that a player would face.

The AI is bad at first because AI often treat their first unit as a scouting unit, I think. They settle a city with their Settler, then they explore the land using their Warrior. Without a Settler or a Warrior, I think their military unit assumed the Warrior role and went exploring that tiny bit of land, before they got serious about killing anyone That said, the AI is still horribly bad at war

The immortals should have won because they heal twice as fast, get a healing bonus for killing other units and have an advantage against all horse, scout and ranged units at this stage of game. Spawning in next to Persia when you start the game as anyone else is a nightmare on high difficulties, because they expand quickly and you are always weaker militarily through the AI research starting bias in a vanilla game. So it's a case of do everything you can to stay friendly until you catch up, then beat them down until they don't exist anymore
