Default Re: Looking for GOOD AI

Definitly use the Rage, other good ones are the TDM-Modpack Xi'Chung (5kemp.file), the TDM-Modpack Sergetti(5kemp.file), the Torons(tdm as well) and the Klingons from the modpack. All will give a good challenge. Also I posted a 'new' race, the Cephalopeia, in the shipset/AI section. They have so far givin a very good fight, running even in scoring with the Xi'Chung and once beating the Rage down.

For all my games I usually start with 'med' tech. this gives the AI less 'theory' tech to research and more to spend on weapons etc. give full starting resources (high), good planets and 5k empfiles, if you don't want the xtra resources for yourself, just waste them(ie, don't research). Giving the AI the Hard bonus and low/medium for resource bonus works wonders as well. All these options usually give me a good challenge.

One other thing, DON'T use Alligence subverter, it just gives too much of an advantage for the player vs the computer. computer just dosn't know how to react/defend.
