Default Computer Player Bonus

Does anyone know how the numbers work with the computer player bonuses?

I have found that high, really is high and that by turn 20 my DUC2 ship is no match for a fleet of 20 enemy ships with Prop6, Shield3, APB10.(Ok, I may be blowing this a bit out of proportion, but you know what I mean.)

Medium seems a bit more balanced, and easy to catch up to with boarding party ships, but still they progress really fast.

Low I have found my self as the evil empire by turn 40.

Any opinions and wisdom? Thanks.

Low bonus is a 2x bonus. Medium is 3x bonus. And High is 5x bonus.

Edit: Got beat to it.

You type too many words
compare "Low bonus is a 2x bonus" with "low X2"

Yes, And how long doesn't it take to write :

"They were armed. With guns," said Omari.
"Canadians. With guns. And a warship. What is this world coming to?"
"Your mother was a hampster, and your father smelt of elderberries."

Every time you post.

I know it takes a lot of time to write my sig everytime, I'm getting a bit tired at it but as everyone else persists in writing their sigs I'll continue to write:
