George Smith is one of the expanding, AI controlled characters on "Advanced" difficulty, alongside Dr. Hugo Mercier, Beryl O'Mara, Artur Gasparov and Carl Leonard von Malching.
Personality and Tactics[]
George is a man of virtues. Some of the quests he offers the player involve ethical dilemmas. He also hates mines because his father died in one of them. He will remind the player of this matter when they build mines.
Strategy wise, George likes to maintain a sizeable navy as well as a good amount of defensive turrets. Taking his islands by military force will usually require high investment into military. Economic takeovers are therefore favored against this AI, since George buys shares much less frequently than the player can.
He does periodically buy a share of one of the player's islands, meaning the player will have to periodically buy back their own shares for the entire game or until George is defeated.
