Conquest on Normal - Impossible Swamp Level - Cheating Resources

If I'm playing on Normal, the AI should not bypass the balance of the game. The AIs have more soldiers than I have workers by the time I get my hero. Make the game feel stupid. I understand AIs cannot match human strategy so you have to make them cheat with unlimited resources or unlimited workers to give a chance of balance but on Normal difficulty? No, that's retarded. They can cheat if I'm so good at the game I have to play on a higher difficulty. The game is unplayable now because it's so imbalanced. Normal should be a comp stomp if I'm decent at the game. Used to love this game, now it's just stupid imbalanced and frustrating because I can't even come close to winning on the stupid swamp biome. It's so obvious the AIs are cheating resources and workers.
