SOLVED AI TROOP INVASIONS

[Atraikius]

Sinapus - I believe it was Rollo and MB that ran into that problem, found it had to do with the AI acting differently when it started as a player controlled race, and then had all the AI turned on for it compared to starting the game under computer control.

MB - I had only tried the transport ships in the beginning and they would just sit there or try to attack alone - so I swithed to a warship style thinking they would be included in fleets if the AI thought of them as warships, which worked. Wasn't too worried about the loss of cargo space, had been finding that with a 5-10 bonus in ground combat, about 150 - 200 small troops with 2 ground cannons 3, and some armor can typically take a planet with no defending troops with a pop. of about 2000. A cruiser or battle cruiser with cargo 3 can easily cary that many.
