The AI files are still under construction and currently in testing. I will post any changes in them in the mod archive to keep everybody updated. Current Version is 0.91, but if the Lastest changes have the desired effect, I might be comfortable enough to go 1.0 in the next update for the AI .


That's ok. AIs can be updated even after a shipset is considered finished.

Nope. Sorry. There has been work done since the Last upload but progress is slow and I've always said it will be. I haven't stopped working on them and I will get them finished eventually.


Does that mean you have some more picture you haven't uploaded to your site yet. Sizes missing by now would be colony ships, space stations and starbases (I used resized Versions of the battlestation) and all units (fighters, troops, weap plats and sats), do you have pics for any of them?

Yow! I'd better check my webmail. I did have some very definite ideas about the colours and things I wanted to include so I might get a little grouchy about this, but thanks for the contribution.


Hope you like what I've done. It will be considered temporary until you provide your own official Version.

The current racename is Rollvik (short for Rollos Vikings). This is just a temporary name for testing and PBM use. It is the flag and ships I use for my PBM games.I did this to avoid confusion with the official Viking shipset. I guess, if we are going to use the painted pictures, we will have to make a new racename.

You're right. I'd better rename it something like just "Viking"

Have you played with the AI, yet? If yes, let me know what you think. Please post only praise here and keep criticism private (email) . Just kidding, of course...


AI seems to work fine in my test. Maybe they are a little too friendly. Weapon combination seems to work fine and their battlecruiser sized colony ships are really tougher than normal ones.
