Butt Kicking

May be a total coincidence, but I haven't lost in a long time on a small map against Hard enemy AI.

This time, it Pwned me...:(

It almost seemed to be cheating with the amount of ships that showed up so quickly.  Enemy and me were both TEC.

He pumped out a Akkon and Dunov darn quick.  I pumped out the Akkon for capping (in hindsight on such a small map I should have went Kol, with a colony ship)

He teched to Hoshinkos fast.  I don't no if they've been enhanced but I couldn't take down squat while he was aggressively pounding me on my own planet with 3 repair bays teched up going...

No way I could have gotten hoshinko as metal resources were incredibly scarce.

It was eventually going totally down hill, even after a few restores so I surrendered.

Either the AI is now awesome, I was having a bad day, or the computer is getting some type of resources unfairly.  It definitely was on hard, not Unfari.

Did you notice if you had a home planet assigned? I have encountered a bug where the first planet you start on isn't your home by default, and you lose lots of tax and resources, this could explain how the AI could out-produce you so quickly.
