First, my idea was that AI attacks Caravans randomly. It is
understandable that if you know that a Caravan will not be
ever
attacked, then you can exploit this fact. Secondly, this
rule can
contain a simple check whether there is only a Caravan or
somebody else.
Finally, it makes sense in the current economical model in
which trade
routers work even if you are in the state of war. If the
developers
decide that trade routes do not bring benefit in this case,
then AI
attacks on caravans will look quite reasonable.
Sincerely,
Alexander Sayenko
