Finished my first two demo games. Besides diplomacy not working (for me?, see above), the AI still is my main complaint. I ran a fighter-based strategy in the second game and the AIs failed to put any point-defense on their ships. Furthermore, there were no serious attacks from the AI (I always could feel very safe.

BTW, I sometimes had the impression that the defensive bonus of fighters do not really. With the 80 bonus and the AIs not using point defense weapons, they should shoot down very few of my fighters. However, about every second shot hit its mark.
