Abstract :
This paper presents an application of Monte-Carlo planning (MCPlan) to controlling units in a RTS game StarCraft. We apply an ε - greedy algorithm to model the opponent in a simulation for improving MCPlan´s performance. Experimental results are provided at the end of this paper, which show the potential of MCPlan in this domain.
