You will find that the AI in AIC plays a very strong Finite game 
The AI does have a planed degradation, but this should be expected around 600 turns, and then it will start to decline. However, many of the AI leaders will have enough resources to continue well beyond 1000 turns. In addition, the AI finite degradation is programmable in AI Campaign; so if you desire more or less in the way of game length, please let me know and we will make adjustments.
PTF and I found after 500 turns to be the best setting. However, this was March 2002 and there has been a lot of additions and changes since then. GLV is AI Campaigns strongest Finite Proponent, his latest opinion is that the AI is Solid in all Finite game variations except (ONLY SAME TYPE starts), but then again this start may yield little for the Human Players as well
