Yes. Currently KNavalBattle only supports player vs player in the
network mode. So, it wouldn't make any sense to have AI in a mode
other than the single player one.

Yes. Depending on the current difficulty level there will be a dummy
or smart AI, each one with a different strategy for shooting and
placing ships.

Well, "how to explain that" is very subjective. If you plan to improve
the documentation for how the AI works, then I recommend you to follow
the current style the docs have, try to be simple and explicative. I'm
not saying it will be easy. :-)
