Warrior General Games

New to the game, wondering how often the different plays get called.

Does the game add up the total number of play priorities in order to come up with the frequency that specific plays are called?

Do the Very Short Runs and Passes count all the time, or only in very short distance situations?

On 3rd down, is there a bias towards passing? If so, does it include all pass sections or only Medium+ sections?

Are there distance cutoffs that bias play selection? i.e. is there a distance where the AI tilts towards Pass?

If so, what are those distances? i.e is Goal Line inside the 10? is 3rd and 5+ limited to Medium+ passes? etc

You control the sections via your tactics settings. Go edit a 'tactics set'. You'll see opportunities to define the sections distance and then each down has a breakdown for what section of plays should be called based on distance.

The playbook directly corresponds with your tactics set.

Play priority only Bort knows how much one bar actually equates to in a GLB1-sense. That's not information that is told to the public.

Thanks for the info.

During a game, are there conditions where the AI ignores plays in the Playbook(PB)/Tactics?

Tactics: Is the Very Short Pass(VSP) chosen only on the down-and-distance Percentage for VSP, or does it also have to be a Very Short yardage situation for the VSP to be called? i.e. if I have 10% VSP for 3rd&Long, will it call VSP's roughly 10% of the time in 3rd & Long situations?

Playbook: Allows OC to put pass plays in any category, i.e. putting a 'Short' pass in the 'Long' section of the PB. During the game, does it also check the distance? In this example, would it ignore the 'Short' passes in the Long Playbook if the down and distance was long? Or would the play be called if it came up?

yes. The entire package will fire, then a play will be selected from it all based on when the offensive tactics tell it to.
