Default Re: How Dumb Is Your Game AI?

Situation:
Cluster Map
Bad News, I discover the Vendron (sp) on my southern flank.
(I have found this AI to be the toughest I have played against.)
Good news: We are separated by a black hole with a Damaging Warp Point leading to their space
I have an escort on a patrol that includes popping in and out of the black hole system.
What are the Vendron doing?
They have repeatedly sent fleets into the black hole system. In 30 turns, none have made it across to my space.
Lesson?
Vendron make bad Neighbors
Black Holes Make Good Neighbors of Vendron
Black Holes make wonderful Fences.
