I've tried some finite resources games. The AI can have a hard time in long games because you can deplete a planet of resources. Early in the game the way the AI builds colonies actually helps them conserve resources. They don't run the risk of depleting a planet real fast as all of their colonied seem to have a variety of facilities.
It's a lot of fun to play this way against humans. You have to be careful what you build and you must save resources or control your extraction rate until you get a planet improvement facility.
