 Reminds me of a two player game my niece and I used to play.     Are you planning on having a single player mode ?

It'd be a challenge, but I think if you stack a few logics on top of each other you'll start to get something that looks like a human.  It's been a while since we played the game mentioned above, but one of traits the Ai appeared to have was to bounce rays when targeting the other player.    What i imagine it does, is fire out rays from it's current position in all directions, then follow each ray through for a set number of bounces.    Which gives you two things, first it's way to approximate the direction the character needs to turn in order shoot the other player from it's current location and secondly the character knows if it's in the players firing line.
