Difficulty bug ?

Hello,

First thanks for this mod, it is great.
I played two or three solo skirmishes on Kharkov and Kholm, and to discover the Soviet army I put the enemy diffculty on Easy, but it seemed like the difficulty was set on maximum each time, which is a bit harsh to discover a new faction.
Is it normal or... ?

Thank you.

they updated the AI to kill everything and everyone. NO they just upgraded them to make them tougher so yes they did make them harder your not getting worse 

The Ai in EF has been reworked and is now alot smarter and harder may take some time to get used to but i dont think this is a bug

Okay, thank you for answering.
I didn't know and I'm a bit confused since last game I just got raped by massive panzer and puma rush after maybe 20 minutes of playing.
Anyway, thank you.
