A little further into the game - ive discovered several class 10 + planets uncolonized, some fairly close to AI colonies. The AI has taken several low class planets i skipped, but they kinda ignored systems that are towards the edge of the map... All in all, now that most planets are colonized, i have at least 3 times more colonies than the next AI, almost all of them above class 8. AI seems to have done horrible job with colonizing, not putting enough effort into it and not enough colony ships,
So i go to play my first game a loooong time, large galaxy, 9 opponents, challenging difficulty. After the initial colonization phase of the game, ive noticed that the AI dont have that much planets. I didnt really see them do much during the early phases of the game in terms of colonizing. So is it just me, or is the ai a little "passive" in the colonization phase? Or did i just get a very good starting spot? Here is a pic: <img src="http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/5224/gcl
whats' firefly?
Ill join. Ive been playing on normal and then bright for 2 games so far but tat was surprisingly easy now im gonna move up to intelligent AI
Wow as if they couldnt make it any harder to find it
Top 10, 50, 100, 500, 1000.
Take on the terrans in a "1-turn war" focusing in the class 19 planer but also get Earth to if possible. Just move a whole bunch of fleets to beside their planets for a few turns before you attack so your sure you can take em. Normal AI's wont move. Just a side question. You can set up forces rite beside the planets of normal AI's and then attack em the next turn without a reaction. But does this also work with a bright Ai?
I once had 3 economy starbases that all affected 3 planets. Massive bonuses. Stacking em is also the key to taking over plantes thru influence.
I like minor races. Ive only gotten 2 so far but they both had class 15 plants on a small galaxyso i exercised the option to wipe em out.
