I regularly play games with No Warp Points, Finite Resources, AIs set to High numbers and Difficult. So far, I've stomped the AIs every single time, even with giving them a low or medium tech bonus. I'm playing the stock Version 1.27. They never use stellar manipulation in any games I've played. They regularly beat me to Stellar Manipulation level 3, but refuse to build a simple ship to take advantage of it. I've tried to change the default AIDesignCreation file to change this, but to no avail. Meanwhile, I build a simple ship based on a Frigate hull with GQRI and not much else, and am expanding like crazy while the AIs sit in their systems, foolishly use their resources up, and then just wait to be conquered.
