Actually, weapon platforms are useful if you have the mod that increases the ranges of platform-based weapon mounts, that is.

Of course, the main problem is that the AI doens't jettison obsolete platforms and build replacements with the latest tech for that turn. 30-50 turn old designs should get rid of the seriously outdated ones while keeping the obsolescent ones in place til the new ones get built.

That and maybe some way to get the AI to build planetary defenses in some way that doesn't overload their cargo storage.

"I'd like to live -just- long enough to be there when they cut off your head and stick it on a pike as a warning to the next ten generations that some favors come with too high a price. I would look up into your lifeless eyes and wave like this..." *waggle* "...can you and your associates arrange that for me, Mr. Morden?"
