Combat Bridge gives even more bonus than the penalties for the higher-level master computers. Combat Aux Con will add another three, not to mention the sensor and combat support trees are very deep in Proportions, and there are other things that add modifiers.

It is a problem though for the AI, because MC's remain expensive, so it's a big waste that can't be modded around for the AI to be putting MC's on transports and escorts etc. If it weren't for John Sullivan's enthusiasm and work on the AI for Proportions, I'd've given up trying to make a decent AI opponent for Proportions. If I get time to make a new major Version, I think I will probably give the AI a lot of unique abilities to balance around its stupidity, instead of trying to walk tightropes to get it to play with the same rules as humans.
