Interesting point there, I didn't know that the AI wasn't able to think about an area. . . I noticed it was overly preoccupied with individual systems(although it's not as flawed as MOOII's AI, which could be tricked into attacking the same system over and over again).
One of the funniest tricks in MOO II was possible with telepaths. Send a cruiser to take a planet, and it's not too difficult early in the game for a cruiser or two to do this, then the AI sends a fleet to take it back. Before it arrives GIVE the planet to another AI you want to get the first AI into a war with. Fleet arrives to 'take back' the planet -- instant war between the two AIs.
