Well, one thing to do would be to specify one of the three generic AI's: Neutral, Defensive, or Aggressive, instead of the shipset based one, for your empire file. This is set during empire creation.

The other thing to do is in each PBW game, to go and specify that the "AI should not make any changes to the empire" when you miss a turn. This is under Empire / Settings during play.

Hmmm.

I had no idea what the "Minister Style" setting was for. Maybe more to the point, I had never thought how its setting could affect the game.

Your second suggestion was also something I had never paid any attention to. I know I am not the only one, since it is not unusual for the AI of a person who has missed a turn to declare war on someone.

Thanx PvK
