However, at this point (ca. turn 430) the game was already decided. The Orks had twice as many ships as the Gron (turn 255: 329 vs. 204, turn 355: 389 vs. 209). Very slowly that superior strength changed the course of the game. I guess the talisman protected the Gron from being buried much faster. (They still had a higher score for lots of turns but only because of resources/research etc.). However, at a certain point not even the talisman could help. The riots began (some colonies were lost but mainly the appearance of more and more Ork ships caused them). And riots equal being doomed...

A very interesting game affirming two former observations. My AIs don't use the abundance of resources provided by the bonus, at least not to the same degree as other AIs do. And secondly troops are crucial to prevent riots, which especially is true for the contest but for the "normal" game as well. I guess I can't help designing troops for my peaceful AIs... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Agree about the destruction of the Gron homeworld was later in the game, but also they used the Warp Openers to attack this system, and many turns before destroy the system, first they killed some Gron homeworlds with fleets.
Also, the Orks used many times the Planet Destroyers.
Agree 100%, about your point about the Troops. They a must be, and more on this kind of maps, where many planets are placed in the same system.

Fazrah vs Aquilaeian.

The Aquilaeian defeated the Fazrah before the turn 260. Although the usual problems that my AIs had with intel (specially with this map and settings), they managed to reach the victory.

Aquilaeian vs Fazrah.

The Fazrah took revenge and defeated the Aquilaeian at the turn 320.

Here the link: Aquilaeian_vs_Fazrah_C3TB2.zip

Because the Aquilaeian won in less turns, then, got the first place.

Re: AI DEATH MATCH 2

Toron vs Narn.

After another boring game (military alliance between both races), the Narn won by points at the turn 500.
Narn 8.8M and Toron 4.1M

Here the link: Toron_vs_Narn_C6TB1.zip

Re: AI DEATH MATCH 2

Narn vs Toron.

This time, the Toron won by points, at the turn 500.
Toron 6.9M
Narn 4.6M

Here the link: Narn_vs_Toron_C6TB2.zip

Total points after the Tie-Break:

Narn = 8.8 + 4.6 = 13.4M
Toron = 4.1 + 6.9 = 11M

Then, the first place was for the Narn Regime.

Standings in the group C6

Narn Regime 4 Points
Toron 4 Points

Re: AI DEATH MATCH 2

First Game in the Round 4.
==========================

Vikings vs Orks.

The Vikings had not problems to defeat the Orks, at the turn 260.

Re: AI DEATH MATCH 2

Pyrochette vs Khrel.

The Pyrochette defeated the Khrel, before the turn 290.
The Pyrochette invaded with success the systems Abrion and Cewandi, and this was the begining of the end for the Khrel.

Re: AI DEATH MATCH 2

Aquilaeian vs Tessellate.

A long game.
The Tessellate won at the turn 432.
Although the Aquilaeian needed to deal with the Talisman and Skip Armor weapons, still they offered a good fight to the Tessellate.

The Tessellate's seem to be quite a handful to deal with. How is the AI for them coming? Are you still tweaking them?

I should wrote the same, but was ashamed because I have 3 AIs involved!
Would like to know opinons about what AI probably will win... My personal favorite with this map/game settings, is the United Flora.

Yes, I did many tweaks, specially into the research tree.
But the problem is that while the games for the tournament are running, I can't test the Tessellate in the right way... then, think will release the new files, some days after finish the AI Contest.
