I remember him. No nothing like that. This is a medium sized galaxy with all default rules cept TDM modpack. Standard 1.49. About 50-60 systems in the game. Large number seem to be asteroid or gas. 3 Black Holes. Almost none of those damaging warp points. Default catastrophe rules etc. I have never seen an AI in any of my other games ever get close to passing 1M score... and yet here I am faced with an AI that has just about finished wiping out all the other AIs (the ones I didn't get) and now has fleets of 40-60 ships in systems bordering mine.
That is the whole purpose of this thread.
Just to see if anyone else has ever had the mixed blessing of an AI that did exceptionally well.
Just for the record I know I am behind him in tech but catching up. I am pretty sure his resources are better than mine and he has about 2/3 of the galaxy with a little over half the rest under my control (Long live the Terran Confederation and its seven racial members). Good thing I have races to breathe every atmosphere cept none.
Normally this is about the stage of the game where I would get bored and stop playing because I would get MEE and no other empire could even touch me. Thus I am nicely and pleasantly surprised to find this game still a challenge at this point.
*smacks self* stop rambling.
