Default Re: genocide vs ground assault

Wish they'd change that. It would make more sense for the AI to wait a few turns to gather forces for a planetary assault rather than just glass the planet and recolonize it. Should be able insert a routine into the attack targeting algorithm that looks at the size/value/population/facilities on the planet and decide to assault instead of vaporizing if the value is past a certain threshold. Add a higher weight to the population if it's the same as the AI's race.
