Any thoughts?
I would think a higher number would help the AI. My experience has been that AI is pretty bad about retrofitting and upgrading ships so I'm not sure it's a lot smarter about tossing units and building new ones. I've seen some really ancient WP's and Sats even late (100-150 turns) in the game armed with weapons like CSM I or APB I.
