Space Empires 2 and warp point defense
Someone mentioned SE2 in the rebate thread, and that reminded me that the AI had some good tactics back then that seem to be missing now. Specifically, the AI used to defend warp points (the neutral AI's were especially good at this). I remember warping into a new system and finding dozens of dreadnoughts waiting to rip my little ships to shreds... whatever happened to that tactic? The AI almost never defends warppoints anymore, except occasionally with mines (and not always very many of those).
Or do the TDM races do a better job of this?
