Plo reinforcement issue

Moorebid

Hey all,
I believe the AI should really (!) follow the order of reinforcements you choose in your line-up.
I've placed Plo in all possible positions and asked my shard chat when he actually comes first of the bench. Well, never!
My opponent in GAC must have CG shares, because his absolutely normal Nego fleet did summon Plo first.
You can all imagine the outcome against my undersized Male fleet...
What does one have to do to get Plo to come out first??

No tanks as ri iirc

They changed it some time ago to call based on what it thinks you need.

Amen to that!
My opponent's does though...
And he had a tank come in after, so that's not it either.

If they made the AI too smart everyone would complain that no one could climb.

I get that, and I'm glad for it.
But why did I get that Plo in my face then?
I have 1 fail, he has none... It made a big impact on the outcome.

The AI will almost always call in a tank first. My bet is he didn’t have a tank in reserve.

You don’t have to fill all the spots. They’ll most likely all get called in when there’s multiple attempts anyway.

He calls plo if your ships have low health, so maybe that was the case

Same as Negociator's special that gives Unending Loyalty : the condition for AI is "a ship in yellow health" it seems
