AI's Money

Every player who chooses 200% to play vs AI knows that money comes not easy!Much matters the kind of map and how the player develop his towns/armies.
When I play a large or XL map,aginst AI,not having other human vs me,than one of the most important things for me to do is gather as much money as I can.
Now let see-we have creature dwellings(explained in other threads),we have town/citadel/castle and some heroes with estates.

Talking about AI's money-apart from the dwellings,much money a player can obtain from enemy heroes.

Let me give example-if I have an encounter with enemy hero,who has let say some unupgraded level 7 creature or some shooters,that AI values and I attack him with stronger army,than AI may choose to surrender in order to keep the troops and give me HIS money for that!

Also I can leave my castle with my troops from the first day and take it again in the 7th day of the week in order AI to build for me level 7 dwelling or something else useful with HIS money!

These ways you use AI's money for you!
Feel free to post other tips for using AI's money apart from the cases you are allied with AI!(I checked table of contents and didnt see such topic)

Never ever did the AI surrender an army to me. I don't know if it is even allowed to surrender if it wanted.
It always retreats losing them all.

The AI doens't think like:
"If I surrender this army I can upgrade and unite with other army and crush this stupid human player."

It's more like:
"Ooops, he is too strong. I throw a magic arrow on his pikemen and retreat, throwing troops away that are worth 20k gold.
Then I rebuy the hero with no army to defend my castle. Ooops, I lost all my artifacts and my main hero with expert navigation, mysticism and fire magic now. Let's hide with my last hero in this sanctuary until 7 days are over..."

;-)


And:
I never give the AI my castle so that it can build for me because it usually build nothing or buildings I'm not interested in.
It's much more useful to defend it and build your own buildings...

That way your main hero doesnt need to stay nearby to reconquer it.

I've never had an AI hero surrender either.  Occasionally, I have had the AI build something for me that I wanted in a town that it captured, but I try to minimize the amount that it has the chance.  The most common way that I can use the AI's money is to capture towns that have a well-built economy (and when I can manage it, capturing a Capitol from the AI).  If the AI is building up a town type that you wouldn't mind using for troops, and you can capture it early enough, that's fairly efficient too.

I remember reading somewhere (Don't quote me on this) that an impossible computer gets a daily income of resources beyond what they get from mines. I'm not sure if this is from HoMM 1, 2 or 3.

I've read something for HoMM3 to the effect that at 160 and 200%, besides an initial resources bonus, the computer gets something like a bonus on it's produced resources, but it could also be as you suggest a regular income.  I'm not completely sure how one would tell, though.
