The AI IS much better...
My first game with v.1,19 was in a large galaxy, No warp points, High thech level and low AI bonus.
I was having a peaceful game until I SHOWED the AI how to open warp points, this is what happened, I build a warp point opener and I opened warp points until I met with the Jnaeren(or something like that) then, the next turn, I had every empire using warp point openers, and there was a Gigantic War.
Fleets of up to 20+ Dreadnoughts, Heavy Carriers, etc, etc...
When the war was finnaly calming down there where at least 3 empires anihilated by two races, the Sergetti and the Eee.
Well I was OK, I closed all the warp points that led to my systems, and I am now in the proces of building my Mega Fleet.
BTW, this was just a test game...
