Default Re: More than just \'weak\' AI?

If you liked, you could go and take out the retard-o-vision ones (No research, no intel, no treaties with others) and recompile all the AIs and see what that does.
Here's a possible use for those: When you are in a militarily dominant role, you could bully with threat of force. "From now on, you will not do any research."

It would be major cool if the ai could figure out that this is a threat, and reply according to the liklihood of win/lose military combat in their systems.

It would be even more cool if it could remember if you broke such treaties shortly afterwards and just killed em all anyway.
